- Dr. Ignizio's book (item #4) has plenty of references to "traditional" OR vs.
- Heuristic Programming vs. Expert Systems to problems, particularly resource
- constrained scheduling problems. He has also suggested "hybrid" expert systems-
- ES combined with heuristic programs to solve complex scheduling problems.
