Abstract

Traditional resources in scheduling are simple machines where the limited capacity is the main restriction. However, in practice there frequently appear resources with more complex behaviour that is described using state transition diagrams. This paper presents new filtering rules for constraints modelling the state transition diagrams. These rules are based on the idea of extending traditional precedence graphs by direct precedence relations. The proposed model also assumes optional activities and it can be used as an open model accepting new activities during the solving process.
