Abstract This chapter deals with solution methods we have developed in order to solve instances of the resource transfer problem. In the first section, we address the problem of allocating renewable resource units to events if the occurrence times and the modes are given. This allows us to represent a solution for the resource transfer problem as a schedule (t, x), for which the allocation of resource units to events can be achieved by solving an appropriate network flow problem. In the second section, we describe our solution methods, which are a branch-and-bound algorithm and some truncated variants of it. The third section is concerned with consistency tests, which can be utilized to reduce the search space of the branch-and-bound algorithm by removing inconsistent values from the domains of the decision variables. Putting it simply, these consistency tests introduce new temporal constraints derived from resource availabilities and mode assignments to events.
