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...

We consider a generalization of the classical resource constrained project scheduling problem. We introduce so-called partially reiiewable resources by assuming for each resource a capacity on subsets of periods. The concept of partially renewable resources is a fundamental tool in order to make...

In project management, the project duration can often be compressed by accelerating some of its activities at an additional expense. This is the so-called time-cost tradeoff problem which has been extensively studied in the past. However, the discrete version of the problem which is of great...

This paper addresses the airport flight gate assignment problem with multiple objectives. The objectives are to maximize the total flight gate preferences, to minimize the number of towing activities and to minimize the absolute deviation of the new gate assignment from a so-called reference...
