Resource-constrained project scheduling problems with variant processes can be represented and solved using a logic-based terminological language called RSV (resource constrained project scheduling with variant processes). We consider three different variants for formalizing the RSV-scheduling problem, the optimizing variant, the number variant and the decision variant. Using the decision variant we show that the RSV- problem is NP-complete. Further we show that the optimizing variant (or number variant) of the RSV-problem is computable in polynomial time iff. the decision variant is computable in polynomial time.
