The two major groups representing biologically inspired algorithms are swarm intelligence
(SI) and evolutionary computation (EC). Both SI and EC share common features such as the …

Planning and managing resources is one of the most important topics in project
management science. Resource leveling is used for improving work efficiency and …

Resource leveling is used in project scheduling to reduce fluctuation in resource usage over
the period of project implementation. Fluctuating resource usage frequently creates the …

The resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) is an important and
challenging problem in the field of construction management. This paper presents a genetic …

Repetitiveness in project's activities has gained an important role in the construction
industry. Multiple linear scheduling methods have been proposed in order to fully take …

In construction projects, resource availability might limit the implementation of ideal
schedules. Especially, when repetitive activities are involved, traditional resource …

Insufficient investment in the public sector together with inefficient maintenance
infrastructure programs lead to high economic costs in the long term. Thus, infrastructure …

This paper develops an integrated mathematical formulation that embraces the Resource
Leveling Problem (RLP) and the Multi-Project Scheduling Problem (MPSP). To incorporate …

Resource levelling aims to obtain a feasible schedule to minimise the resource usage
fluctuations during project execution. It is of crucial importance in project scheduling to …

Access to sufficient and safe water particularly in vulnerable countries is one of the most
important goals targeted by the United Nations for 2030. The agricultural water supply is …
