Many organizations face the challenge of selecting and scheduling a subset of available projects subject to various resource and operational constraints. In the simplest scenario, the primary objective for an organization is to maximize the value added through funding and implementing a portfolio of projects, subject to the available budget. However, there are other major difficulties that are often associated with this problem such as qualitative project benefits, multiple conflicting objectives, complex project interdependencies, workforce and manufacturing constraints, and deep uncertainty regarding project costs, benefits, and completion times. It is well known that the PPSSP is an NP-hard problem and, thus, there is no known polynomial-time algorithm for this problem. Despite the complexity associated with solving the PPSSP, many traditional approaches to this problem make use of exact solvers. While exact solvers provide definitive optimal solutions, they quickly become prohibitively expensive in terms of computation time when the problem size is increased. In contrast, evolutionary and memetic computing afford the capability for autonomous heuristic approaches and expert knowledge to be combined and thereby provide an efficient means for high-quality approximation solutions to be attained. As such, these approaches can provide near real-time decision support information for portfolio design that can be used to augment and improve existing human-centric strategic decision-making processes. This edited book provides the reader with a broad overview of the PPSSP, its associated challenges, and approaches to addressing the problem using evolutionary and memetic computing. 001442733 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 18, 2021). 001442733 650_0 $$aEvolutionary computation. 001442733 650_0 $$aComputer scheduling. 001442733 650_6 $$aRéseaux neuronaux à structure évolutive. 001442733 650_6 $$aOrdonnancement (Informatique) 001442733 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001442733 7001_ $$aHarrison, Kyle Robert,$$eeditor$$0(orcid)0000-0002-1443-3005$$1https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1443-3005 001442733 7001_ $$aElsayed, Saber,$$eeditor. 001442733 7001_ $$aGaranovich, Ivan Leonidovich,$$eeditor$$0(orcid)0000-0001-6676-6584$$1https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6676-6584 001442733 7001_ $$aWeir, Terence,$$eeditor. 001442733 7001_ $$aBoswell, Sharon G.,$$eeditor. 001442733 7001_ $$aSarker, Ruhul A.,$$eeditor. 001442733 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tEvolutionary and memetic computing for project portfolio selection and scheduling.$$dCham, Switzerland : Springer, [2022]$$z3030883140$$z9783030883140$$w(OCoLC)1266253223 001442733 830_0 $$aAdaptation, learning and optimization ;$$vv. 26.$$x1867-4542 001442733 852__ $$bebk 001442733 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-88315-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001442733 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1442733$$pGLOBAL_SET 001442733 980__ $$aBIB 001442733 980__ $$aEBOOK 001442733 982__ $$aEbook 001442733 983__ $$aOnline 001442733 994__ $$a92$$bISE
