Description
Summary:This work deals with a project scheduling problem where the tasks consume resources to be activated, but start to produce them after that. This problem is known as Dynamic Resource-Constrained Project Scheduling Problem (DRCPSP). Three methods were proposed to divide the problem into smaller parts and solve them separately. Each partial solution is obtained by CPLEX optimizer and is used to generate more complete partial solutions. The obtained results show that this hybrid method works very well.
