The resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) aims to schedule a set of
activities subject to resource and precedence constraints to minimize the project makespan …

The analysis of the relationship between time and cost is a crucial aspect of construction
project management. Various optimization techniques have been developed to solve time …

The planning phase of every construction project is entangled with multiple and occasionally
conflicting criteria which need to be optimized simultaneously. Multi-criterion decision …

Project managers should balance a variety of resource elements in building projects while
taking into account many major concerns, including time, cost, quality, risk, and the …

Considering the trade-offs between conflicting objectives in project scheduling problems
(PSPs) is a difficult task. We propose a new multi-objective multi-mode model for solving …

Determining the time and cost of activities is one of the most important stages of construction
project planning. Measures taken to shorten the time, such as the need for more or more …

Quantitative methods and techniques from operations research (OR) are well-accepted in
many industries, eg the manufacturing industry or the transportation industry. Similarly …

Despite many research studies have concentrated on designing heuristic and meta-heuristic
methods for the discrete time–cost trade-off problem (DTCTP), very little success has been …

Balancing time and cost has long been a primary focus of construction project management.
In this context, achieving optimal balancing time and cost objectives is crucial. The multi …

Recently government agencies have started to utilize innovative contracting methods that
provide incentives for improving construction quality. These emerging contracting methods …
