Abstract: In project management, project scheduling is an important method to achieve optimal resource allocation. Projects are often faced with many uncertain factors. The baseline schedules obtained under the deterministic assumption can hardly be executed as planned. Additionally, in practice, projects tend to have the characteristic of multiple modes. The above situations pose a great challenge to the effectiveness of project scheduling. In view of this, the multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem is studied under uncertain activity durations and it aims to construct effective dynamic scheduling policies.
