ABSTRACT
Whenever more than one project is being scheduled and the projects have resources in common the probability is high that there will be resource contention between projects. Not only will each project be forced to contend for resource time, but resource time may also be limited for all projects. This brings up some interesting issues:
• How are physical constraints identified? • How are they exploited? • Does a subordination process still apply? • How should multiple projects be scheduled? • Will near-constraint resources interact to prevent or hamper scheduling?
