This textbook provides a rigorous yet accessible introduction to scheduling theory, covering both deterministic and stochastic models and exploring classic and modern scheduling techniques. It details a wide range of topics—single- and multi-machine sequencing, safe scheduling, robust and hierarchical methods, project analytics, and the PERT21 framework—supported by algorithms, heuristic methods, and practical exercises. Designed for upper-undergraduate and graduate-level students, as well as practitioners, the book balances theoretical foundations with real-world application and includes supplementary research notes and spreadsheet tools.
