Integration of program evaluation and review technique (PERT), gantt chart and genetic algorithm in project management scheduling

Project scheduling is important to the completion of a project. Since having delay, out of inventory and budget overrun make the failure of the project, project managers shall be able to handle a project with a certain scheduling decision making tool accordingly. A good technique for scheduling...
