Abstract This paper suggests the method of modeling of project breakdown structures (WBS, OBS, TRM, network model etc.) and its relationships on the basis of ER-methodology. This data model could be considered as a semantic network and application of the logical deduction algorithm for the determination of the project breakdown structures solving sequence is also proposed. The derived sequence defines the specific project management process taking into account the restrictions and priorities of the particular project. This algorithm could be applied for project planning and change management. © 2013 Published by Elsevier Ltd. Selection and/or peer-review under responsibility of CENTERIS/ProjMAN/HCIST.

Introdction Project planning and change management represents complicated task. Numerous limitations and priorities concerning project scope, schedule, quality, resources etc. characterize large projects. Combinations of these conditions define different problem statements of project management. There are various approaches to the
