SECTION 1
RESOURCE
A resource is any physical or virtual
entity of limited availability that
needs to be consumed to obtain a benefit
from it.
In most cases, commercial or even
non-commerial factors require resource
allocation through resource management.

SECTION 2
VALUE
OF
A
RESOURCE
The purely economic value of a resource
is controlled by supply and demand. This
is, however, a narrow perspective on
resources as there are many things that
cannot be measured in money.
Natural resources like forests, mountains
etc. are considered beautiful so they have
aesthetic value. Resources also have an
ethical value as well, because it is widely
recognized that it is our moral duty to
protect and conserve them for the future
generations.

SECTION 3
RESOURCE
MANAGEMENT
In organizational studies, resource management
is the efficient and effective deployment for
an organization's resources when they are needed.
Such resources may include:
financial resources,
inventory,
human skills,
production resources,
information technology (IT).
In the realm of project management, processes,
techniques and philosophies as to the best
approach for allocating resources have been
developed.
Resource management is a key element to activity
resource estimating and project human resource
management. Both are essential components of a
comprehensive project management plan to execute
and monitor a project successfully.
As is the case with the larger discipline of
project management, there are resource management
software tools available that automate and assist
the process of resource allocation to projects and
portfolio resource visibility including supply and
demand of resources.

SECTION 4
RESOURCE
ALLOCATION
Resource allocation is used to assign the
available resources in an economic way.
It is part of resource management. In
project management, resource allocation
is the scheduling of activities and the
resources required by those activities
while taking into consideration both the
resource availability and the project
time.

SECTION 5
ALLOCATION
OF
RESOURCES
A description of the mechanics of investment;
where one applies one's goods (for greatest
possible future gain); how one disposes of
one's resources (for greatest possible effect).
