Time-Cost-Quality trade off in Critical Chain Method with multi mode activities by Multi Objective Particle Swarm Optimization

Believing in the fact that an activity can be performed through several methods or states, or that there may be several executive states for activities with different numbers of resources in real conditions, the scheduling obtained from different methods with different combinations of time, resource...
