| Abstract: | Managers of construction projects, maintenance activities, auditing contracts, software shops etc. are frequently faced with the task of establishing a new project's due date, which must compete with other projects already in progress or expected to start in the future. There are established due dates for projects which require limited resources, in an environment where new projects arrive continuously and randomly over time. A set of procedures is developed which set each project's due date. The due date setting procedures are tested via simulation. |
