Abstract

This paper provides an overview of Software Project Scheduling problem as a combinatorial optimization problem. Since its inception by Alba, there have been multiple models to solve this problem. Metaheuristics provide high-level strategies capable of solving these problems efficiently. A set of metaheuristics used to solve this problem is presented, showing the resolution structure and its application. Among these we can find Simulated Annealing, Variable Neighborhood Search, Genetic Algorithms, and Ant Colony Optimization.
