ABSTRACT

For example, the critical path method is the most

common technique employed today for drawing up

robust schedules. Koo et al. (2007) present a for-

mal identification and re-sequencing process using

the Critical Path Method (CPM) which supports

the rapid development of sequencing alternatives

in construction schedules. Pontrandolfo (2000)

emphasizes the complexity of construction projects

and the uncertainty that surrounds any estimation

of the length of a certain activity, resulting in a

higher criticality of project scheduling. Addressing

this problem, he uses PERT-state and PERT-path

techniques, focusing on network complexity and

time uncertainty. Biruk et al. (2008) present a new

methodology for project scheduling with repetitive

processes using a Petri-nets based approach.
