Abstract :
We examine the possibility of applying the concepts of the feeding and the project buffers of critical chain project management (CCPM) on max-plus linear discrete event systems, using a simple model and numerical examples in order to control the occurrence of an undesirable state change in discrete event systems. As a remarkable outcome, we found that the application of a CCPM based framework on max-plus linear system was proven to be effective.
