Traditionally, process planning and scheduling for parts were carried out in a sequential way, where scheduling was done after process plans had been generated. Considering the fact that the two functions are usually complementary, it is necessary to integrate them more tightly so that performance of a manufacturing system can be improved greatly. In this paper, we present a review of the repor...

Software project scheduling plays an important role in reducing the cost and duration of software projects. It is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem that has been addressed based on single and multiobjective algorithms. However, such algorithms have always used fixed genetic operators, and it is unclear which operators would be more appropriate across the search process. In this pape...

Organizing large scale projects (e.g., Conferences, IT Shows, F1 race) requires precise scheduling of multiple dependent tasks on common resources where multiple selfish entities are competing to execute the individual tasks. In this paper, we consider a well studied and rich scheduling model referred to as RCPSP (Resource Constrained Project Scheduling Problem). The key change to this model th...

Project scheduling is concerned with single-item or small batch production where scarce resources have to be allocated to dependent activities over time. Applications can be found in diverse industries such as construction engineering, software development, etc. Also, project scheduling is increasingly important for make-to-order companies where the capacities have been cut down in order to mee...

Make more knowledge even in less time every day. You may not always spend your time and money to go abroad and get the experience and knowledge by yourself. Reading is a good alternative to do in getting this desirable knowledge and experience. You may gain many things from experiencing directly, but of course it will spend much money. So here, by reading essays in production project planning a...

This paper presents a list-scheduling algorithm for graphs with data and control dependencies. We assume that tasks are partitioned between hardware resources as scheduling takes place after partitioning in our co-synthesis tool. Control dependencies are introduced by if statements, and model complementary functionalities. A detailed discussion of our algorithm is presented. Extensive experimen...

This study presents and evaluates a modified ant colony optimization (ACO) approach for the resource-constrained project scheduling problems. A modified ant colony system is proposed to solve the resource-constrained scheduling problems. A two-dimensional matrix is proposed in this study for scheduling activities with time, and it has a parallel scheme for solving project scheduling problems. T...

This study proposes a method incorporating agent technique and critical chain technique that based on theory of constraints to solve the project scheduling problem. The approach utilizes thoroughly designed procedure and analytical methods to effectively allocate resources dynamically to achieve the targets of the project. The effectiveness of various scheduling strategies proposed based on the...
