This is the B case, which provides additional information on the situation described in "Process Mapping Exercise, (A)" by describing how further improvements in the account billing process can be achieved. It provides the information necessary for students to create the new process flow...

This case is intended to introduce students to Mexico's maquiladora (sometimes called "in-bond") program and its role in Mexico's use of its border with the United States as a key part of its national development strategy. The evolution and operation of the maquiladora program are described,...

An algorithm is described which permits the computation of optimal (minimum-duration) solutions for the resource-constrained project network scheduling problem under conditions of multiple resource requirements per job (activity). The approach is a form of bounded enumeration and employs...

The problem addressed is that of scheduling the activities of a project network to minimize project duration under conditions of multiple limited resource requirements and availabilities. Various heuristic sequencing rules have been applied to this problem, and the effectiveness of these rules...
