Abstract

A calendar contains working days and non-working days. How to make time planning for a project, when some activities cannot be interrupted by non-working days or in some time distances between start times of activities also non-working days count, is a problem often facing us when undertaking a project realization. In this paper an exact method to solve this problem is presented and the optimality of this method is proved.
