Abstract
This article considers a general class of nonpreemptive multi-mode res ource-constrained project scheduling problems in which activity durati ons depend on committed renewable resources (multi-mode time resource tradeoff). We propose a genetic algorithm for these problems and compa re it with a stochastic scheduling method proposed by Drexl and Gruene wald. Computational results show that the proposed genetic algorithm i s superior to the stochastic scheduling method. (C) 1997 Elsevier Scie nce B.V.
