Efficient utilization of resources is crucial for any organization or industry as resources are often scarce. Scheduling them in an optimal way can not only take care of the scarcity but has potential economic benefits. Optimal utilization of resources reduces costs and thereby provides a competitive edge in the business world. Resources can be of different types such as human (personnel-skilled and unskilled), financial(budgets), materials, infrastructures(airports and seaports with designed facilities, windmills, warehouses’ area, hotel rooms etc) and equipment (microprocessors, cranes, machinery, aircraft simulators for training), etc. Typically, scheduling of resources is done over a period of time (planning horizon), but in many cases there are other dimensions to the problem induced by limited resources UR - http://dspace.isical.ac.in:8080/jspui/handle/10263/7114 ER -
