Project Network Scheduling With Limited Resources Using Heuristic Solution Techniques, Enrique J. Daboin Rojas
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
Traditional critical path methods imply the assumption of unlimited availability of resources. Mathematical models and heuristic techniques are two alternatives that consider resource limitation to sequence the activities of a project. This research explores the consideration of project scheduling under resource constraints for the specific case of single resource, single project scheduling. A computer model called GENRES-II search model is developed using a modification of Brooks' algorithm to develop project schedules. The criteria used are various weighted combinations of ACTIM, ACTRES and ACTFOL. An improvement of GENRES-II solutions is obtained when the best set of GEN-II values is input to …
