Abstract

The logic-based scheduling languages RSV and RCPSV may be used to represent and to solve a new general class of resource-constrained project scheduling with variants. RSV and RCPSV syntactically represent schedul7ing problems as descriptions (activity terms) being similar to concepts in a description logic. Though RSV and RCPSV have a different syntax, they are equal1y expressive. On the other hand, from a complexity point of view RCPSV permits more compact representations than RSV. We argue that the difference may be exponential.
