Simulation-based approach for Multiproject Scheduling based on composite priority rules
Pablo Alvarez-Campana, Felix Villafanez, Fernando Acebes +1
This paper presents a simulation approach to enhance the performance of heuristics for multi-project scheduling. Unlike other heuristics available in the literature that use only o…
Impact of aleatoric, stochastic and epistemic uncertainties on project cost contingency reserves
David Curto, Fernando Acebes, Jose M Gonzalez-Varona +1
In construction projects, contingency reserves have traditionally been estimated based on a percentage of the total project cost, which is arbitrary and, thus, unreliable in practi…
Stochastic Earned Value Analysis using Monte Carlo Simulation and Statistical Learning Techniques
Fernando Acebes, M Pereda, David Poza +2
The aim of this paper is to describe a new an integrated methodology for project control under uncertainty. This proposal is based on Earned Value Methodology and risk analysis and…
Production planning in 3DPrinting factories
Juan De Anton, Juan J Senovilla, Jose M Gonzalez-Varona +1
Production planning in 3D printing factories brings new challenges among which the scheduling of parts to be produced stands out. A main issue is to increase the efficiency of the…
Building and development of an organizational competence for digital transformation in SMEs
Jose M Gonzalez-Varona, Adolfo Lopez-Paredes, David Poza +1
Purpose: The new competitive environment characterized by innovation and constant change is forcing a new organizational behavior. This requires a digital transformation of SMEs ba…
Stochastic Earned Duration Analysis for Project Schedule Management
Fernando Acebes, David Poza, Jose Manuel Gonzalez-Varona +1
Earned duration management (EDM) is a methodology for project schedule management (PSM) that can be considered an alternative to earned value management (EVM). EDM provides an esti…
Project Risk Management from the bottom-up: Activity Risk Index
Fernando Acebes, Javier Pajares, Jose M Gonzalez-Varona +1
Project managers need to manage risks throughout the project lifecycle and, thus, need to know how changes in activity durations influence project duration and risk. We propose a n…
On the project risk baseline: integrating aleatory uncertainty into project scheduling
Fernando Acebes, David Poza, Jose M Gonzalez-Varona +2
Obtaining a viable schedule baseline that meets all project constraints is one of the main issues for project managers. The literature on this topic focuses mainly on methods to ob…
How public funding affects complexity in R&D projects. An analysis of team project perceptions
Jose M. Gonzalez-Varona, Natalia Martin-Cruz, Fernando Acebes +1
In this paper, we apply a case study approach to advance current understanding of what effects public co-funding of R&D projects have on project team members' perceived complexity.…
Analisis cuantitativo de riesgos utilizando "MCSimulRisk" como herramienta didactica
Fernando Acebes, David Curto, Juan de Anton +1
Risk management is a fundamental discipline in project management, which includes, among others, quantitative risk analysis. Throughout several years of teaching, we have observed…
Beyond probability-impact matrices in project risk management: A quantitative methodology for risk prioritisation
Fernando Acebes, José Manuel González-Varona, Adolfo López-Paredes +1
The project managers who deal with risk management are often faced with the difficult task of determining the relative importance of the various sources of risk that affect the pro…
