Overview

This book presents models and algorithms for complex scheduling problems. Besides resource-constrained project scheduling problems with applications also job-shop problems with flexible machines, transportation or limited buffers are discussed. Discrete optimization methods like linear and integer programming, constraint propagation techniques, shortest path and network flow algorithms, branch-and-bound methods, local search and genetic algorithms, and dynamic programming are presented. They are used in exact or heuristic procedures to solve the introduced complex scheduling problems. Furthermore, methods for calculating lower bounds are described. Most algorithms are formulated in detail and illustrated with examples.

Reviews

Aus den Rezensionen: ! Das vorliegende Buch umfasst neben zwei einfuhrenden Kapiteln je ein Kapitel zur ressourcenbeschrankten Projektplanung sowie zur Maschinenbelegungsplanung und zeigt Gemeinsamkeiten aber auch Gegensatze der beiden Planungsprobleme auf. ... Insgesamt empfiehlt sich dieses Buch fur alle Forschungsinteressierten, die sich naher mit komplexen Ablaufplanungsproblemen beschaftigen, wobei ein gewisses Grundwissen in den Bereichen Ablaufplanung bzw. Optimierungsmethoden sicher hilfreich ist. Durch die detaillierte Darstellung der Losungsverfahren und die vielen anschaulichen Beispiele eignet sich das Werk auch gut zum Selbststudium. (Jurgen Zimmermann, in: OR News - OR Spectrum, Juli 2008, Issue 33, S. 66)


From the reviews: This monograph deals with complex scheduling problems and typical solution approaches for them. ! This book gives a good and well readable introduction into such complex scheduling problems with a review of current solution techniques. Most algorithms for the exact and heuristic solution of the problem types considered are given in detail, and they are often illustrated with an example. The monograph can be recommended both for researchers and practitioners. (Frank Werner, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1154, 2009)
