Inventory constraints refer to so-called cumulative resources, which can store a single or several different products and have a prescribed minimum and maximum inventory, where the inventory is depleted and replenished over time. Some additional applications of cumulative resources, e.g. to...

The monograph deals with deterministic project scheduling with time windows for activities and with limited resources. In addition to project duration or makespan, a large number of mostly nonregular objective functions are considered, for example, net present value, earliness plus tardiness...

The book presents the state of the art of deterministic resource-constrained project scheduling with time windows. General temporal constraints (arising from minimum and maximum time lags between project activities) and several different types of limited resources are considered. A large variety...

We study the scheduling of projects subject to general temporal constraints between activities such that the project net present value is maximized. The proposed algorithm is based on a first-order steepest ascent approach, where the steepest ascent directions are normalized by the supremum...
