A comparison of different project duration forecasting methods using earned value metrics

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare the classic earned value performance indicators SV and SPI with the newly developed earned schedule performance indicators S( t ) and SPI( t ), and compare the three methods from literature to forecast total project duration.
Journal ArticleDOI

A hybrid scatter search/electromagnetism meta-heuristic for project scheduling

TL;DR: This paper combines elements from scatter search, a generic population-based evolutionary search method, and a recently introduced heuristic method for the optimisation of unconstrained continuous functions based on an analogy with electromagnetism theory to provide near-optimal heuristic solutions for resource-constrained project scheduling.
Journal ArticleDOI

A genetic algorithm for the preemptive and non-preemptive multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem

TL;DR: A bi-population genetic algorithm is applied, which makes use of two separate populations and extend the serial schedule generation scheme by introducing a mode improvement procedure, which reveals that this procedure is amongst the most competitive algorithms.
Journal ArticleDOI

RanGen: A Random Network Generator for Activity-on-the-Node Networks

TL;DR: The network generator meets the shortcomings of former network generators since it employs a wide range of different parameters which have been shown to serve as possible predictors of the hardness of different project scheduling problems.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Decomposition-Based Genetic Algorithm for the Resource-Constrained Project-Scheduling Problem

TL;DR: It is illustrated that the GA outperforms all state-of-the-art heuristics and that the DBGA further improves the performance of the GA.
