Abstract:

Project scheduling is a critical aspect across various industries that is still extensively studied. Unlike project plans for the resource-constrained project scheduling problem, those in the multi-mode extension (MRCPSP) remain relatively unexplored regarding project characteristics and their implications. The present study explores artificial project plans featuring multiple modes to address this gap. The lower and upper bounds are determined for the adapted project-related indicator groups using metaheuristic optimization as a mode selection strategy. Our approach contributes by offering insights into the multi-mode context and characteristics influencing project scheduling and managerial decisions.
