ReviewMost papers are of a high quality, and the whole collection contains a very good insight into the state of the art of current research in project scheduling. The book addresses its intended readership of 'research workers, specialists and professional people' in project scheduling well and will be a useful and welcome addition to their bookshelves. I also recommend the book to libraries in such fields as production and operations management, applied mathematics, and (quantitatively oriented) business administration.'Interfaces, 30:6(1999)Product DescriptionProject scheduling problems are, generally speaking, the problems of allocating scarce resources over time to perform a given set of activities. The resources are nothing other than the arbitrary means which activities complete for. Also the activities can have a variety of interpretations. Thus, project scheduling problems appear in a large spectrum of realworld situations, and, in consequence, they have been intensively studied for almost fourty years. Almost a decade has passed since the multiauthor monograph: R. Slowinski, 1. W~glarz (eds. ), Advances in Project Scheduling, Elsevier, 1989, summarizing the stateoftheart across project scheduling problems, was published. Since then, considerable progress has been made in all directions of modelling and finding solutions to these problems. Thus, the proposal by Professor Frederick S. Hillier to edit a handbook which reports on the recent advances in the field came at an exceptionally good time and motivated me to accept the challenge. Fortunately, almost all leading experts in the field have accepted my invitation and presented their completely new advances often combined with expository surveys. Thanks to them, the handbook stands a good chance of becoming a key reference point on the current stateoftheart in project scheduling, as well as on new directions in the area. The contents are divided into four parts. The first one, dealing with classical models exact algorithms, is preceded by a proposition of the classification scheme for scheduling problems.
