Я думаю, такой перевод является наиболее обобщающим (см. цитату и ссылку).

"This need for the uninterrupted utilization of resources from an activity in one unit to the same (repeating) activity in the next unit is explicitly recognized by several scheduling methodologies that have been available for many years and have been called by a number of different names. For projects with discrete units, such as floors, houses, apartments, stores, or offices, names that have been used include: Line of Balance (LOB); Construction Planning Technique (CPT); Vertical Production Method (VPM), ...
...
For highways, pipelines, tunnels, etc., where progress is measured in terms of horizontal length, the names used have included: Time Versus Distance Diagrams; Linear Balance Charts; Velocity Diagrams; or Linear Scheduling Method.

Although each of these methods was developed to meet its own particular objectives, all of them are essentially alike in that they schedule the work in the project by plotting the progress of repeating activities against time. Therefore, these methods can be integrated into one generalized and simplified model, the Repetitive Scheduling Method (RSM), that ensures uninterrupted resource utilization and is applicable to both vertical and horizontal сonstruction".
