Improving Resource-Constrained Project Schedules with Look-Ahead Techniques

A method, referred to as “look-ahead,” has been developed that can provide an improved sequence in which to perform the activities of a resource-constrained project schedule. In particular, this method has been applied to the scheduling of activities required to complete depot maintenance of aircraft. In many cases, the method is able to decrease the total makespan of resource-constrained projects over that achieved when using existing heuristics.
