PSPLIB - a project scheduling problem library
Article Abstract:
A series of benchmark instances for evaluating solution methods for single- and multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problems, which were generated by the standard project generator ProGen, is presented. The whole set, including detailed characterization and the best solutions known so far, can be accessed from a public ftp-site. Researchers can download the benchmark instances they need and can furnish new results. The instance library should encourage further improvements in project type scheduling.

Semi-active, active, and non-delay schedules for the resource-constrained project scheduling problem
Article Abstract:
The job shop problem (JSP) and the resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) are examined. The study defined feasible, semi-active, active and non-delay RCPSP schedules based on JSP schedule classification. The formal definitions retained dominance relations for variant schedule sets for JSP. It is shown that the definitions maximize analytical results involving exact and heuristic algorithms.

Multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling by a simple, general and powerful sequencing algorithm
Article Abstract:
An exact solution method was formulated to resolve the multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem. Application of the method on more than 10,000 problem instances revealed its high performance in terms of the number of projects it can optimally resolve. The method, with the help of the search tree reduction schemes, also demonstrated the effect of the bounding rules.
