Breadth-first and best-first exact procedures for regular measures of the multi-mode RCPSP
Madhukar, Dayal; Verma, Sanjay (Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad, 2014)The multi-mode resource constrained project scheduling problem (MM RCPSP) is a NP-hard problem representing a generalization of the well-studied RCPSP. Depth-first tree search approach by Sprecher & Drexl (1998) is the ... -
Comment on Icmeli and Erenguc's " a branch and bound procedure for the resourcen constrained project scheduling problem with discounted cash flows
Verma, Sanjay; Dhavale, N. P.; Bagchi, Amitava (2010-01-16)In a recent paper, Icmeli and Erengue (1996) present an algorithm to maximize the Net Present Value (NPV) of a given project under renewable resource constraints. It is shown here, with the help of an example, that in some ... -
Exact Methods for the Preemptive Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling Problem
Verma, Sanjay (2009-09-01)A simple best-first tree search scheme with pruning rules to minimize the completion time (makespan) of the project is described. A project consists of a set of activities partially ordered by precedence constraints. An ... -
Exact Procedures for Non-Regular Measures of the Multi-Mode RCPSP
Dayal, Madhukar; Verma, Sanjay (Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad, 2015)The multi-mode resource constrained project scheduling problem (MM RCPSP) is a generalization of the well-studied RCPSP. A literature review reveals applications of inexact heuristics or metaheuristics approaches for solving ... -
Multi-processor exact procedures for regular measures of the multi-mode RCPSP
Dayal, Madhukar; Verma, Sanjay (Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad, 2015)The multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem (MM RCPSP) is an NP-hard problem representing a generalization of the well-studied RCPSP. Depth-first tree search approach by Sprecher & Drexl (1998) is the ... -
Scheduling partially ordered activities under resource constraints on parallel machines
Verma, Sanjay; Dhavale, N. P.; Bagchi, Amitava (2009-12-14)A four-step strategy is proposed for scheduling a set of partially ordered resource-constrained activities on a given number of identical parallel machines. For regular measures, the generated schedule is optimal. In the ... -
Strategies for improving Indian railways' market share of port based coal traffic: a diagnostic study
Raghuram, G.; Verma, Sanjay; Dixit, K. L.; Kapshe, Sanjeevan (2009-12-12)India is a vast country. After its independence in 1947, it steadily lost its position in international trade. With the beginning of economic liberalization in 1991, it has taken new initiatives in integrating itself with ... -
