Knowledge Base Repository

In addition to research papers, the Design Society is developing several valuable resources for those interested in the study of design. These include a repository of PhD theses, a library of case studies and transcripts of design activities, and an archive of our newsletters. Please note that these resources are accessible exclusively to Design Society members.

Abstract:
Fuzzy project planning and scheduling has interested several researchers in the past three decades; more than 100 articles have been written on this issue. Contrary to stochastic project scheduling
approaches that are used by many project practitioners, and even if the axiomatic associated to the theory of probabilities is not always compatible with decision-making situations, fuzzy projectscheduling approaches that are most suited to these situations have been kept in the academic sphere. This article starts by recalling the differences one can observe between uncertainty and imprecision. Then most of the published research works that have been done in this field are summarised. Finally, a framework for addressing the DSM-based resource-constrained fuzzy project-scheduling problem is briefly presented. This framework uses temporal linguistic descriptors, which might become very interesting features to project practitioners.
