Penyelesaian Permasalahan Penjadwalan Aktivitas Proyek dengan Batasan Sumber Daya Menggunakan Metode Cross Entropy
Abstract: Project scheduling
is essential to be planned before activities. Standard methods of project
scheduling based on precedence constraints scheduling events and the assumption
that resources are not unlimited capacity. But in fact the project activity has
resource limits. The main objective is to minimize the total duration of the
project with precedence constraints and resource constraints for all project
activities. Many optimization methods are used to improve the quality of
scheduling and speed up the calculation time. This paper proposed the use of
Cross Entropy (CE) method to solve resource constraints project scheduling
problem, as well as comparing the advantages and disadvantages between the CE
methods with Differential Evolution (DE) method. The purpose CE method consist
of four critical steps including generating a sample of random solution,
calculating the performance according to the specific fitness function,
selecting elite sample and finally updating the previous parameters to get a
better sample in the next iteration. To speed up the computation time, in this
study decrease the number of samples for each iteration in Cross Entropy
algorithm. Numerical experiments with several data sets from the Project
Scheduling library (PSPLIB) showed that CE can provide the optimal total
duration of the project same as the DE with calculation time is faster than DE.
