This paper addresses the resource-constrained project scheduling problem with flexible resource profiles (FRCPSP). Such a problem often arises in many real-world applications, in which the resource usage of an activity is not merely constant, but can be adjusted from period to period. The FRCPSP...

Recently Biano and Caramia (2013) proposed a new MIP for the resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP). Despite its potential the presentation of the MIP contains some errors. In this note we point them out and show how they can be corrected

Since its advent, the 'just-in-time'-paradigm has considerable influence on production planning and control. While originally employed for high-volume production, 'just-in-time'-concepts are meanwhile documented for low-volume, make-to-order production as well. An example is the assembly of...

The problem of scheduling multiple, large scale, make-to-order assemblies is considered. Beside "classical" precedence- and resource constraints as known from resource constrained project scheduling we take spatial resource and part availability constraints into account. The objective is to...
