Abstract :
The paper presents a Genetic Algorithms technique, used to optimize project schedule created in Microsoft Project. The proposed model is called OPTPROJECT. The proposed application is simple and at the same time general enough for optimization of projects, where the high cost activities have to be performed last (at the end of the project). It can be used to manage both small and large projects.
