Potential applications of the CCS/BM method in the scheduling of continuous LSM (Linear Scheduling Model) construction activities are considered. The effect of time buffers – feeding buffers (FB) and project buffers (PB) – on total project realisation time (TT) is examined. Feeding buffers are found to have no direct full influence on TT if construction activities continuity is assumed. The influence of FBs on TT for other conditions considered in this paper still needs to be examined.
This paper summarises methods of scheduling construction processes with the use of artificial intelligence methods. Rules used for the calculation are characterised taking into account the implementation of priorities and resource constraints.
The article presents the results of a computation experiment in which a genetic algorithm (GA) and a hybrid evolutionary algorithm (HEA) were used. The respective results are compared for an objective function describing employment level regularity. It has been demonstrated that evolutionary algorithms can be used for optimizing demand for resources (workers) in time coupling methods.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
