Abstract

In recent years, in the field of project scheduling the concept of partially renewable resources has been introduced. Theoretically, it is a generalization of both renewable and non-renewable resources. From an applied point of view, partially renewable resources allow us to model a large variety of situations that do not fit into classical models, but can be found in real problems in timetabling and labor scheduling. In this chapter we define this type of resource, describe an integer linear formulation and present some examples of conditions appearing in real problems which can be modeled using partially renewable resources. Then we introduce some preprocessing procedures to identify infeasible instances and to reduce the size of the feasible ones. Some exact, heuristic, and metaheuristic algorithms are also described and tested.
