资源受限下森林火灾应急救援多目标调度优化

许多森林火灾由于救援资源受限而不能在第一时间扑灭,导致火灾扩大蔓延,进而造成更大的森林资源损失。因此,在救援资源受限情形下,如何对消防救援车辆进行合理的调度安排以快速和低成本地扑灭火灾已成为亟待解决的现实问题。本文研究了一类资源受限下森林火灾应急救援多目标调度优化问题,为该问题构建了多目标混合整数非线性规划模型,优化目标为同时最小化总灭火救援时间和救援车辆总行驶距离。为有效求解该问题,首先将上述非线性模型等价转化为线性模型。然后提出ε-约束法和模糊逻辑相结合的算法对问题进行求解。最后,以大兴安岭山发生的火灾案例和随机生成仿真算例对模型和算法有效性进行验证,结果表明所提出的模型和算法能够有效解决资源受限下森林火灾应急救援问题,并为决策者提供最优的消防调度方案。

Solving resource-constrained project scheduling problem with evolutionary programming

This paper presents an evolutionary programming (EP)-based approach to solving the resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP), a well-known NP-hard problem in scheduling, with minimization of project duration as the objective subject to precedence and resource constraints. The individual representation of EP for the problem is based on random keys. The serial generation scheme is used in the decoding scheme to generate the project plan. Experimental analyses are presented to investigate the performance of the proposed EP-based methodology, including comparison of the four variants of EP, namely, CEP, FEP, MCEP and IMCEP, with each other and GA to find the best variant of EP for the RCPSP, and comparison of this best variant of EP (MCEP) with other approaches using the J30 standard instances set in PSPLIB. The computational results validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.     

PROGRESS: Optimally solving the generalized resource-constrained project scheduling problem

This paper deals with the generalized resource-constrained project scheduling problem (GRCPSP) which extends the well-known resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) by considering job specific release and due dates, non-negative minimum start-to-start time lags as well as time-varying resource availabilities. The structure of the project is represented by an acyclic network diagram. Though the extensions are of high practical importance, only a few exact solution procedures have been presented in the literature so far. Therefore, a new exact procedure PROGRESS is developed which includes new dominance rules as well as enhancements of existing ones. For evaluating the efficiency experimentally, new GRCPSP instances with 30 and 60 jobs are considered which extend the standard benchmark sets for the RCPSP generated by ProGen. PROGRESS shows superior performance when applied to the GRCPSP and is also very competitive in comparison to approaches proposed for the RCPSP.     

A survey of variants and extensions of the resource-constrained project scheduling problem

The resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) consists of activities that must be scheduled subject to precedence and resource constraints such that the makespan is minimized. It has become a well-known standard problem in the context of project scheduling which has attracted numerous researchers who developed both exact and heuristic scheduling procedures. However, it is a rather basic model with assumptions that are too restrictive for many practical applications. Consequently, various extensions of the basic RCPSP have been developed. This paper gives an overview over these extensions. The extensions are classified according to the structure of the RCPSP. We summarize generalizations of the activity concept, of the precedence relations and of the resource constraints. Alternative objectives and approaches for scheduling multiple projects are discussed as well. In addition to popular variants and extensions such as multiple modes, minimal and maximal time lags, and net present value-based objectives, the paper also provides a survey of many less known concepts.     

Production scheduling with alternative process plans

This paper deals with a scheduling problem with alternative process plans that was motivated by a production of wire harnesses where certain parts can be processed manually or automatically by different types of machines. Only a subset of all the given activities will form the solution, so the decision whether the activity will appear in the final schedule has to be made during the scheduling process. The problem considered is an extension of the resource constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) with unary resources, positive and negative time-lags and sequence dependent setup times. We extend classic RCPSP problem by a definition of alternative branchings, represented by the Petri nets formalism allowing one to define alternatives and parallelism within one data structure. For this representation of the problem, an integer linear programming model is formulated and the reduction of the problem, using time symmetry mapping, is shown. Finally, a heuristic algorithm based on priority schedule construction with an unscheduling step is proposed for the nested version of the problem and it is used to solve the case study of the wire harnesses production.     

Computing redundant resources for the resource constrained project scheduling problem

Several efficient lower bounds and time-bound adjustment methods for the resource constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) have recently been proposed. Some of them are based on redundant resources. In this paper we define redundant functions which are very useful for computing redundant resources. We also describe an algorithm for computing all maximal redundant functions. Once all these redundant functions have been determined, we have to identify those that are useful for bounding. Surprisingly, their number is reasonable even for large resource capacities, so a representative subset of them can be tabulated to be used efficiently. Computational results on classical RCPSP instances confirm their usefulness.

A branch-and-bound procedure for the resource-constrained project scheduling problem with generalized precedence relations

We present an optimal solution procedure for the resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) with generalized precedence relations (RCPSP-GPR) with the objective of minimizing the project makespan. The RCPSPGPR extends the RCPSP to arbitrary minimal and maximal time lags between the starting and completion times of activities. The proposed procedure is suited for solving a general class of project scheduling problems and allows for arbitrary precedence constraints, activity ready times and deadlines, multiple renewable resource constraints with time-varying resource requirements and availabilities, several types of permissible and mandatory activity overlaps and multiple projects. It can be extended to other regular and non-regular measures of performance. Essentially, the procedure is a depth-first branch-and-bound algorithm in which the nodes in the search tree represent the original project network extended with extra precedence relations to resolve a number of resource conflicts. These conflicts are resolved using the concept of minimal delaying modes, which is an extension of the notion of minimal delaying alternatives for the RCPSP. Several bounds and dominance rules are used to fathom large portions of the search tree. Extensive computational experience is reported.     

柔性工期下的资源受限项目调度双目标优化研究

在项目调度过程中,活动工期应根据项目截止工期以及资源供给情况进行合理设置,而在传统的资源受限项目调度问题(RCPSP)中,活动的工期往往是已知且固定的,这在一定程度上限制了项目调度的灵活性。多模式下的项目调度方式虽然弥补了这一缺点,但其提供的工期-资源组合种类固定且有限,并不一定能保证包含最优的工期-资源组合。本文将活动工期作为项目调度问题的决策变量,允许其在一定范围内取值。这种柔性工期调度方式虽然增加了项目调度难度,但提高了项目调度灵活性,同时可以起到压缩项目完工时间的作用。为验证柔性工期调度方式对项目工期和成本的影响,本文建立了工期-成本双目标权衡优化模型,设计了两阶段嵌套算法(NSGAⅡ-RS)对其求解,实验证明,柔性工期调度策略是一种鲁棒性较好的项目完工时间压缩策略。
