Project Portfolio: A Job Scheduling Approach

This work is devoted to the portfolio project management problem and more specifically is focused on IT portfolios' management. This problem is formulated as Resource Constrained Scheduling Problem (RCPSP). The contemporary organisations such as the IT companies plan and execute a set of projects that share common resources. Therefore, each IT organisation develops a set of IT projects and it has to handle them concurrently. In this study we reviewed the literature and developed a system model based on the job shop scheduling problem modelling and expressed it as recursive neural network. We propose an initial solution by applying a greedy algorithm that can be used as input to the RNN.
