Abstract. We propose a hybrid approach for solving the resource-constrained project scheduling problem which is an extremely hard to solve combinatorial optimization problem of pra...
This paper proposes a local search algorithm that makes use of a complex neighborhood relation based on a hybridization with a constructive heuristics for the classical resource-co...
The car sequencing problem involves scheduling cars along an assembly line while satisfying capacity constraints. In this paper, we describe an Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algor...
In order to maintain a reliable and economic electric power supply, the maintenance of power plants is becoming increasingly important. In this paper, a formulation that enables a...
One of the most important, common and critical management issues lies in determining the "best" project portfolio out of a given set of investment proposals. As this dec...
