  2. Stochastic scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic_scheduling

    The objective of the stochastic scheduling problems can be regular objectives such as minimizing the total flowtime, the makespan, or the total tardiness cost of missing the due dates; or can be irregular objectives such as minimizing both earliness and tardiness costs of completing the jobs, or the total cost of scheduling tasks under likely arrival of a disastrous event such as a severe typhoon.

  3. List of statistical tools used in project management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_statistical_tools...

    work breakdown structure, A work breakdown structure (WBS), in project management is a deliverable oriented decomposition of a project into smaller components. A Gantt chart is a type of bar chart, that illustrates a project schedule. Design structure matrix is a simple, compact and visual representation of a system or project in the form of a ...

  4. Automated planning and scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_planning_and...

    Probabilistic planning can be solved with iterative methods such as value iteration and policy iteration, when the state space is sufficiently small. With partial observability, probabilistic planning is similarly solved with iterative methods, but using a representation of the value functions defined for the space of beliefs instead of states.

  5. Lottery scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lottery_scheduling

    Lottery scheduling is a probabilistic scheduling algorithm for processes in an operating system. Processes are each assigned some number of lottery tickets, and the scheduler draws a random ticket to select the next process. The distribution of tickets need not be uniform; granting a process more tickets provides it a relative higher chance of ...

  6. M/M/1 queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M/M/1_queue

    The model name is written in Kendall's notation. The model is the most elementary of queueing models [1] and an attractive object of study as closed-form expressions can be obtained for many metrics of interest in this model. An extension of this model with more than one server is the M/M/c queue.

  7. Simulated annealing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulated_annealing

    For any given finite problem, the probability that the simulated annealing algorithm terminates with a global optimal solution approaches 1 as the annealing schedule is extended. [11] This theoretical result, however, is not particularly helpful, since the time required to ensure a significant probability of success will usually exceed the time ...

  8. Queueing theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queueing_theory

    The probability that n customers are in the queueing system, the average number of customers in the queueing system, the average number of customers in the waiting line, the average time spent by a customer in the total queuing system, the average time spent by a customer in the waiting line, and finally the probability that the server is busy ...

  9. Program evaluation and review technique - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program_Evaluation_and...

    The program evaluation and review technique (PERT) is a statistical tool used in project management, which was designed to analyze and represent the tasks involved in completing a given project. PERT was originally developed by Charles E. Clark for the United States Navy in 1958; it is commonly used in conjunction with the Critical Path Method ...
