Over the years numerous branch-and-bound procedures for solving the resource-constrained project scheduling problem have been developed. Enumerating delaying alternatives, extension alternatives, feasible posets, feasible sequences or feasible subsets, they all aim at finding as fast as possible...

Over the years numerous branch-and-bound procedures for solving the resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) have been developed. Enumerating delaying alternatives, extension alternatives, feasible posets, feasible sequences, feasible completion times or feasible subsets, they all...

Numerous exact algorithms have been developed for solving the resource-constrained project scheduling problem. Experimental studies have shown that currently even projects with only 60 activities cannot be optimally solved within a reasonable amount of time. Therefore heuristics employing...

We present a set of benchmark instances for the evaluation of Solution procedures for single- and multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problems. The instances have been systematically generated by the Standard project generator ProGen. They are characterized by the input-parameters...

The paper describes an algorithm for the generation of a general class of precedence- and resource-constrained scheduling problems. Easy and hard instances for the single- and multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem are benchmarked by using the state of the art...

We consider the resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP). The focus of the paper is on a formal definition of semi-active, active, and non-delay schedules. Traditionally these schedules establish basic concepts within the job shop scheduling literature. There they are usually...

We consider the multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem. The focus is on an algorithm which is supposed to find a makespan optimal solution. This algorithm has been presented in a recent paper by Speranza and Vercellis. The correctness of the algorithm is examined. Moreover,...

We consider an extension of the classical resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP), which covers discrete resource-resource and time-resource tradeoffs. As a result a project scheduler is permitted to identify several alternatives or modes of accomplishment for each activity of...
