| Tiivistelmä: | An overview of some fuzzy set-based approaches to scheduling is proposed, emphasing two distinct uses of fuzzy sets: representing preference profiles and modelling uncertainty distributions. The first setting leads to a valued, noncompensatory generalization of constraint-directed scheduling. The other setting yields a possibility-theoretic counterpart of PERT, where probability distributions of activity durations are changed into possibility distributions, for the purpose of modelling incomplete information. It is pointed out that a special case of the latter, interval-valued PERT, is a difficult, ill-known problem, regarding the determination of critical activities, latest starting times and floats. |
