OPTIMAL CRASHING TIME SCHEDULING FOR MEGA PROJECTS

This Paper presents a framework for time crashing a mega project by using the linear programming technique such to earned least total crashing cost. First, a mathematical model of the problem is given, and then after a numerical example is introduced to demonstrate the efficiency of this technique in solving the time crashing problem of mega projects for different time crashing values. This will help the project managers to consider strategic decisions for crashing the milestones and activities constituting the mega project.
