Planning horizons based proactive rescheduling for stochastic resource-constrained project scheduling problems
Parties that collaborate on projects need to synchronize their efforts. For this reason they seek a decreased rescheduling variability of the time arrangements. Proactive–reactive scheduling is important in such situations. It predominantly achieves synchronization through a shared baseline schedule and deviation penalties. As the latter currently introduce an unrealistically high level of inflexibility, the solution methods never proactively update the baseline schedule. We propose threshold-based cost functions for the deviation penalties to enable a more realistic modeling of aspects of project collaboration. These functions introduce a greater degree of flexibility through the notion of planning horizons for the activities. This results in the possibility of profitable proactive changes to the baseline schedule. We present two metaheuristic approaches for the case of stochastic durations: rollout-based and iterative policy search. Both these approaches use such opportunities to achieve substantial cost– performance improvements in comparison to the best existing method. This enhancement comes at the price of an increased computational burden and the greater complexity of the solution space.
