Abstract: | Managing multiple projects is a complex task. It involves the integration of varieties of resources and schedules. The researchers have proposed many tools and techniques for single project scheduling. Mathematical programming and heuristics are limited in application. In recent years non-traditional techniques are attempted for scheduling. This paper proposes the use of a heuristic and a genetic algorithm for scheduling a multi-project environment with an objective to minimize the makespan of the projects. The proposed method is validated with numerical examples and is found competent. |
