摘　　要：经典关键链项目缓冲确定方法只考虑了一级链路上活动的信息,导致最终计算出的缓冲量不准确。基于此,本文首先通过对项目计划进行分形调整,利用一维关联维数确定不同级别链路之间的相关性,然后利用Logistic增长模型构建缓冲模型,将缓冲的确定分散到分形网路中相关链路的各个活动上,通过利用逆向选择原理确定均衡缓冲截取位置,并进一步确定项目缓冲。最后将本文方法与C&PM,RSEM,APD三种方法进行仿真实验对比分析,实验结果表明,本文方法能够在保证按时完工率的前提下,有效缩短项目工期,并降低项目总成本。The large-scale projects always have an enormous number of data and tasks,and that makes the project manager easier to unconsciously ignore some important information.The traditional buffer sizing methods adopted by the project manager only consider the information of the activities on the critical chain,which usually cause an inaccurate buffer size for lacking of information of non-critical activities.What is more,the project manager and workers always have a game on striving for the report time,which results in large amount of time waste.Hence,a new buffer sizing method is proposed by considering the schedule fractal dimension,the project link activities and the correlation between different levels of activity chains.Firstly,the complexity of projects and the correlation of the different level of activity paths are described based on the Fractal Dimension theory.Secondly,considering the project manager’s decision-making power and risk adverse index,a balanced time-cut position between the manager and workers is identified based on the game theory.Finally,the aforementioned information is incorporated to the logistic growth model and the buffer size of each dimension chain is calculated.One of the advantages of the logistic growth model is that it sets anupper limit for the buffer size,overcoming the problem of liner increasing as the scale of the project grows and the number of activities increases.The improved project buffer size is reasonably calculated by the growth function■,where■represents the needed buffer,f0denotes the initial buffer size,K is the most optimistic buffer size,p represents the speed of buffer increasing and the C is the schedule fractal dimension.To validate the proposed method,the management processis simulated by Matlab software and compare the experiment results with three classic methods(C&PM,RSEM and APD).The results indicate that the proposed method can effectively shorten the project duration(4.7%)and reduce the total cost of the project(34.9%).Our research has filled gaps in
