Presenting a large variety of models and algorithms dedicated to the resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP), which aims to schedule at minimal duration a set of activities subject to precedence constraints and limited resource availabilities, this book tackles three main issues. First, the standard variant of RCPSP is presented and analyzed as a combinatorial optimization problem. The second part focuses on several other variants of the RCPSP and on their solution methods. Lastly, industrial case studies are presented where the RCPSP plays a central part.
