Abstract
A probabilistic scheduling model for software projects is presented. The model explicitly takes a scheduling strategy as input. When the scheduling strategy is fired, the model outputs a probability distribution for the project completion time or cost. By applying stochastic optimization techniques, schedules for software projects can be computed which minimize the development time or cost with a given staff.
