In this paper we consider the resource-constrained project scheduling problem with multiple execution modes for each activity and makespan minimization as objective. We present a new genetic algorithm approach to solve this problem. The genetic encoding is based on a precedence feasible sequence...

This contribution presents a simulation model that generates arrivals of ships over time at a container terminal. The model includes a quay of limited capacity, a decision module for assigning berths to ships, and a queue for ships for which currently no berth is available. Such models are...

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,...
