Abstract: In this paper, we consider an uncertain project scheduling problem, in which activity durations, with no historical data generally, are estimated by belief degrees and assumed to be uncertain variables. To achieve different management goals, we build three uncertain chance-constrained programming models for project scheduling problem, in which the chance constraint must reach a predetermined confidence level. Moreover, these models can all be transformed to their crisp forms, and an intelligent algorithm is designed to search the optimal schedule. Finally, a numerical example is presented to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed model.
