Journal of Modern Project Management - Issue 2, 2013
In the new second issue of the Journal of Modern Project Management, a new article titled "Project baseline scheduling: An overview of past experiences" is published. The article is inspired by the work done in the past 10 years and based on the material written in chapters 7 and 8 of the book Dynamic Scheduling. Some of the projects mentioned in this article have been analyzed by ProTrack.
In a previous article written by Kym Henderson “EVM Europe: Plans for 2013”, the fifth anniversary edition of EVM Europe 2013 has been presented to the readers of the Measurable News.

That's why we have decided to post a "what's coming up" blog on our OR-AS website, in order to give the customers a sneak preview of what they can expect, but also to motivate our team to work on the new research topics until they are finished and ready to submit to the public. Here is what we will working on in the next few months:
