Alternate methods of project scheduling with limited resources

Naval Research Logistics Quarterly, 1973, vol. 20, issue 4, 767-784

Abstract: The applicability of critical path scheduling is limited by the inability of the algorithm to cope with conflicting resource demands. This paper is an assessment of the effectiveness of many of the heuristic extensions to the critical path method which resolve the conflicts that develop between the resources demanded by an activity and those available. These heuristic rules are evaluated on their ability to solve a large multiproject scheduling problem.
