A unified nomenclature for project scheduling problems (RCPSP and RCMPSP)

Abstract

We present a unified formulation for the single and the multi-project scheduling problems (RCPSP and RCMPSP, respectively).

For this reason, in this article we propose a unified nomenclature for the formulation of both problems
