Despite the extensive use of the agent technology in the Supply Chain Management field, its integration with Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) tools still represents a promising field with several open research questions. Specifically, the literature falls short in providing an integrated framework to analyze, specify, design and implement simulation experiments covering the whole simulati...

This article explains the execution and delivery progression phases of project lifecycle. It is third phase lifecycle that leads to final realization project's goals. However, this essay will describe understanding ‘enlightened planning’ approach during strategy progress a project’s The features details in Enlightened Planning PMI PMBOK Guide are compared. author explored nature role basic fram...

abstract project management in construction industry, in many cases, is imperfect with respect to the integration of occupational health and safety (ohs) risks. this imperfection exhibits itself as complications affecting the riskiness of industrial procedures and is illustrated usually by poor awareness of ohs within project teams. difficulties on ohs regularly came about in the construction i...

We investigate project scheduling with stochastic activity durations to maximize the expected net present value. Individual activities also carry a risk of failure, which can cause the overall project to fail. To mitigate the risk that an activity’s failure jeopardizes the entire project, more than one alternative may exist for reaching the project’s objectives, and these alternatives can be im...

Organizations need to evaluate project proposals and select the ones that are the most effective in reaching the strategic goals by considering sustainability issue. In order to enhance the effectiveness and the efficiency of project oriented organizations, in this paper a new multi-objective decision making (MODM) approach of sustainable project portfolio selection is proposed which applies in...

in the process of investment decision making, next to financial indicators many other aspects of investment projects are increasingly often considered. this leads to the multi-criteria evaluation of a project. the advantage of multi-criteria methods is the ability to take into account all (not only financial) aspects of the attractiveness of an investment project. the selection of criteria of p...

The environment in which the project schedule will be executed is far from being static. Projects are subject to various uncertainties that have negative effect on activity durations. This is most apparent in the case of construction projects. The frequency and impact of risks depend on project-specific, contractor-specific and location-specific conditions. Identifying critical sources of risk ...
