Research Type Theoretical We make three key contributions with respect to designing mechanisms for the strategic RCPSP: (i) We formally define the strategic model and its objective. (ii) We then show that the well known VCG mechanism is not incentive compatible for the strategic RCPSP. (iii) Finally, we provide two mechanisms that build on VCG, namely SCP and ICP with strong theoretical properties.
