Similarity:

Many real-world scheduling problems can be modeled as Multi-mode Resource Constrained Project Scheduling Problems (MRCPSP). However, the MRCPSP is a strong NP-hard problem and very difficult to be solved. The purpose of this research is to investigate a more efficient alternative based on ant algorithm to solve MRCPSP. To enhance the generality along with efficiency of the algorithm, the rule pool is designed to manage numerous priority rules for MRCPSP. Each ant is provided with an...

A branch-and-cut algorithm for a resource-constrained scheduling problem

Renaud Sirdey, Hervé L. M. Kerivin (2007)

Similarity:

This paper is devoted to the exact resolution of a strongly -hard resource-constrained scheduling problem, the , which arises in relation to the operability of certain high-availability real-time distributed systems. Based on the study of the polytope defined as the convex hull of the incidence vectors of the admissible process move programs, we present a branch-and-cut algorithm along with extensive computational results demonstrating its practical relevance, in terms of both exact...
