This document discusses the extension of serial and parallel scheduling procedures to accommodate fuzzy time parameters in worker compensation schemes and task priority schemes. It introduces the concept of task importance through three properties: soft deadline, hard deadline, and penalty cost. Additionally, it proposes a method using a DE algorithm with an improved mutation scheme to address deadline issues.

TASK PRIORITY SCHEME
• Deadlines are often associated with specific tasks of the entire project.
In order to address deadline issues, the concept of ‘‘importance”of
tasks is introduced by assigning three properties to eachtask: Dsoft,
Dhard, and P. The two deadlines are expressed in timeunits, while the
penalty P is expressed as a cost per unit time.
