In today's highly competitive uncertain project environments, it is of crucial importance to develop analytical models and algorithms to schedule and control project activities so that the deviations from the project objectives are minimized. This paper addresses the integrated scheduling and control in multi-mode project environments. We propose an optimization model that models the dynamic behavior of projects and integrates optimal control into a practically relevant project scheduling problem. From the scheduling perspective, we address the discrete time/cost trade-off problem, whereas an optimal control formulation is used to capture the effect of project control. Moreover, we develop a solution algorithm for two particular instances of the optimal project control. This algorithm combines a tabu search strategy and nonlinear programming. It is applied to a large scale test bed and its efficiency is tested by means of computational experiments. To the best of our knowledge, this research is the first application of optimal control theory to multi-mode project networks. The models and algorithms developed in this research are targeted as a support tool for project managers in both scheduling and deciding on the timing and quantity of control activities.

The resource allocation capabilities of commercial project management software packages for resource constrained project scheduling problem
Çekmece, Kerem; Sönmez, Rifat; Department of Civil Engineering (2009)
Resource constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) has been subject of extensive research in project management literature as RCPSP is one of the most challenging problems in the project management and is of great practical importance. In this thesis, resource allocation capabilities of Primavera Enterprise V.6.0-Project Management (P6) and MS Project 2007 (MS) were evaluated for solving overallocated problems in the RCPSP. Fourty-five resource overallocated instance projects were selected from the PSP...
A decision-support tool for risk and complexity assessment and visualization in construction projects
Dikmen Toker, İrem; Atasoy Özcan, Güzide; EROL, HACI HÜSEYİN; Kaya, Hazal Deniz; Birgönül, Mustafa Talat (2022-10-01)
© 2022 Elsevier B.V.Risk assessment in projects requires the integration of various information on project characteristics as well as external and internal sources of uncertainty and is based on assumptions about future and project vulnerability. Complexity is a major source of uncertainty that decreases the predictability of project outputs. In this research, the aim was to develop a decision-support tool that can estimate the level of risk and required contingency in a project by assessment of complexity ...
An optimization model to coordinate scheduling and controling in projects: case with instantaneous control constraints
Hazir, Öncü; Schmidt, Klaus Verner; Eryilmaz, Utkan (National Technical University of Athens; 2014-01-01)
Today, many enterprises in different industries take part in various projects, and organizational performances depend more and more on project performances. In order to maximize performance, effective management of project functions is crucial. In this regard, we focus on scheduling and control functions and their relation. Characteristics of data sharing among them and possible integration strategies are theoretically investigated. A model base for a decision support framework that accounts for these inter...
A Software benchmarking methodology for effort estimation
Nabi, Mina; Demirörs, Onur; Department of Information Systems (2012)
Software project managers usually use benchmarking repositories to estimate effort, cost, and duration of the software development which will be used to appropriately plan, monitor and control the project activities. In addition, precision of benchmarking repositories is a critical factor in software effort estimation process which plays subsequently a critical role in the success of the software development project. In order to construct such a precise benchmarking data repository, it is important to have ...
An exploratory study on utilization of BIM for risk management
Kaya, Hazal Deniz; Dikmen, İrem; Atasoy, Güzide; Birgönül, Mustafa Talat (İstanbul Teknik Üniversitesi; 2020-11-14)
It is a well-known fact that BIM application in construction projects enables several advantages such as better collaboration and communication, effective project visualization before construction, more efficient cost estimation and scheduling, and an increase in productivity. Although many of these advantages that BIM contributes to construction projects may result in opportunities for better risk management, there are limited studies in the construction management literature that investigate this subject....
