Abstract | This thesis pertains to the study multi-project multi -
resource scheduling problem. A case of study is taken up from
Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT ) . The specific
problem considered h ere is of transmission line projects. Three
projects, each requiring eight difference types of resources have
been studied. The Best-first search methodology is applied h ere
which is adopted from a recent paper. However , the adjustment is
done to make the proposed methodology capable to manage the
multi- project problem and also to use the advantage of heuristic
method. The program in this thesis is written in LISP language in
order to suit the methodology . A comparison of heuristic method
a nd optimizing method is presented. By applying the methodology ,
the sensitivity analysis with respect to resource additions and
time variations are done. In time variation analysis some
assumptions are required to be made so that it can be analyzed by
using the methodology developed. Further study on Cost-Benefit
analysis of the proposed resources has been reported by varying
the interest rates with fixed inflation rate. |
