    Abstract
    The timely completion of a project is one of its main factors for success. During the scheduling phase, a project buffer can be installed to protect the project deadline. During the execution phase, tolerance limits that generate warning signals when the project deadline is endangered should be constructed to monitor the buffer consumption. These tolerance limits will be constructed for the dynamic progress data provided by the Earned Value Management/Earned schedule methodology (EVM/ES). In this paper, we incorporate information on the availability of scarce resources into the construction of analytical tolerance limits for EVM/ES, in order to improve the efficiency and reliability of these tolerance limits. In order to review the performance of the limits, a computational experiment has been carried out in which they are compared to analytical tolerance limits that disregard the availability of resources. Results have shown that the performance of analytical tolerance limits can be significantly enhanced by incorporating the available resource information.

    Export search results

    The export option will allow you to export the current search results of the entered query to a file. Different formats are available for download. To export the items, click on the button corresponding with the preferred download format.

    By default, clicking on the export buttons will result in a download of the allowed maximum amount of items.

    To select a subset of the search results, click "Selective Export" button and make a selection of the items you want to export. The amount of items that can be exported at once is similarly restricted as the full export.

    After making a selection, click one of the export format buttons. The amount of items that will be exported is indicated in the bubble next to export format.
