To solve this problem an asynchronous team of agents implemented using JABAT middleware has been proposed. Four kinds of optimization agent has been used. Each of them acts in two ways depending whether the received initial solution is feasible or not. The paper contains the MRCPSP/max problem formulation, description of the proposed architecture for solving the problem instances, description of optimization algorithms, description of the experiment and the discussion of the computational experiment results.}, identifier = {05977876}, }
