In project management, the project duration can often be compressed by accelerating some of its activities at an additional expense. This is the so-called time-cost tradeoff problem which has been extensively studied in the past. However, the discrete version of the problem which is of great...

Resource-constrained project scheduling under a net present value objective attracts growing interest. Because this is an NP-hard problem, it is unlikely that optimum solutions can be computed for large instances. Thus, heuristics have become a popular research field. Up to now, however, tight...

The resource investment problem deals with the issue of providing resources to a project such that a given deadline can be met. The objective is to make the resources available in the cheapest possible way. For each resource, expenses depend on the maximum amount required during the course of...
