Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling

The subject of this text is project scheduling under resource-constraints. Several well-known scheduling problems, such as job-shop-scheduling and the assembly line balancing problem, are embedded in the mathematical programming formulation used. Exact solution procedures for a broad class of performance measures are presented. Moreover, an algorithm for the generation of problem instances (ProGen) is described. The newcomer is introduced by illustrative examples to the field of scheduling and the expert is presented with a powerful exact solution procedure for the multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem.
