Description
Summary:The subject of the book is project scheduling under resource-constraints. Several well-known scheduling problems, like e.g. the job-shop-scheduling and the assembly line balancing problem, are embedded in the mathematical programming formulation used. Exact solution procedures for a broad class of performance measures, i.e. objectives, are presented. Moreover, an algorithm for the generation of problem instances (ProGen) is described. The newcomer is introduced by illustrative examples into the field of scheduling and the expert is familarized with a powerful exact solution procedure for the multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem. For the more general readership the main ideas of problem generation and computational tractability are of interest.
