A comparative study of computational procedures for resource constrained project scheduling problem
(1991) Bala, Hasan
Customarily, the project sclheduling problem is thought in the context of PERT and CPM. Although widely used and powerful, these techniques do not take into account a basic feature of the problem, that is resource limitations. The problem addressed in this study is to schedule the activities of a single project in order that all resource and precedence relationships constraints are satisfied with an objective of minimizing total of activity completion times. Our purpose is to make a computational comparison of some solution procedures for the problem. Firstly, the 0 - 1 formulation of the problem is introduced together with the underlying assumptions. Then, we describe the solution procedures tested in this study. In order to evaluate them, the random activity networks are generated. Finally, we provide the results and conclusions.

Critical path analysis in project management: An Application
(1989) Karagöz, Bülent Reha
Critical Path Analysis (CPA) in project management has found extensive applications in the last three decades, mainly because it enables the completion of project in the shortest possible time and increases the efficiency. The purpose of this thesis is to explain CPA by means of an application on a construction project, using HTPM software.

Project management in interior design services
(1997) Şahinoglu, Alp
In this study, the concept of project management is analyzed within the framework of interior design services. Project management has been defined as the managing and coordination of all human and physical resources, in order to accomplish the predetermined goals (aim of the project, time, cost, quality), during the process of the project. Initially, the application of project management to interior design services has been discussed, defining the structure and service areas of the work and services units within the profession. Moreover, the processing of the phases of the interior design services within the project life cycle is analyzed upon the interior design profession. Thus, using modern project management techniques and procedures; the planning, execution, monitoring, and control of different components of a project, such as time, communications, human resources, materials, cost, has been discussed within the project life cycle. Furthermore, research is conducted about the utilization of project management notions by the interior design firms in Turkey. The main objective of the research was analyzing the verification of use of project management notions for the interior design business by the sample firms. The findings through the research are analyzed and further studies are proposed.
