Abstract

Resource‐constrained project scheduling has been a significant and practical problem in recent decades. In this research, besides previous assumptions and models regarding scheduling, the reliability function with a novel approach is included in the model. A new look at the project scheduling problem is pursued by studying the probability of access to renewable resources. The mentioned problem programming model is a mixed nonlinear mathematical model that uses the properties of an exponential function to become a linear programming model, exact optimization software is used to solve it in smaller dimensions, and a genetic algorithm is used to solve it in NP‐hard dimensions. The algorithms and statistical analysis results at a 95% confidence level show the proper performance of the genetic algorithm; therefore, this algorithm is more efficient for the proposed model. Using the provided mathematical model, this research leads to decreasing time and lags, decreasing costs, and increasing reliability in multimode activities.
