Research of a New Model to Optimize Resource Allocation

Article Preview

Abstract:

In construction project, it is important for managers to optimize resource allocation. It leads to get the optimum time and control cost. In this paper, we get a new approach to optimize resource allocation through analyze the time-cost curve and PERT technique. It is easy to use this method even if the information is limited.
