Chapter Chapter 1 in Application of Mathematics and Optimization in Construction Project Management, 2021, pp 1-23 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter reviews the basic and sometimes contradictory definitions and principles of a project as well as its organization and management in a way that provides a general and accurate summary of the concept of project management and corresponding concepts. Definitions of relative terms are collected and expressed concerning influential studies in the literature of the concept. Although there are several research works on the definitions of project management, so far such a comprehensive review with emphasis on the basics, processes, and applications of project management techniques in different organizations, as discussed in this chapter, has not been presented. Besides, this chapter is explained to equip the reader with the required definitions that are needed in the rest of the book.
