Transcription de la présentation
  1. A B D C Constructing a Project Network • Terminology • Activity: an element of theproject that requires time. • Merge activity: an activity that has two or more preceding activities on which it depends. • Parallel (concurrent) activities: Activities that can occur independently and, if desired, not at the same time.

  4. C A B Constructing a Project Network (cont’d) • Terminology • Path: a sequence of connected, dependent activities. • Critical path: the longest path through the activity network that allows for the completion of all project-related activities; the shortest expected time in which the entire project can be completed. Delays on the critical path will delay completion of the entire project. D (Assumes that minimum of A + B > minimum of C in length of times to complete activities.)

  5. Activity-on-Node Network FIGURE 6.5

  6. Forward Pass Computation • Add activity times along each path in the network (ES + Duration = EF). • Carry the early finish (EF) to the next activity where it becomes its early start (ES) unless… • The next succeeding activity is a merge activity, in which case the largest EF of all preceding activities is selected.

  7. Activity-on-Node Network Backward Pass FIGURE 6.7

  8. Backward Pass Computation • Subtract activity times along each path in the network (LF - Duration = LS). • Carry the late start (LS) to the next activity where it becomes its late finish (LF) unless... • The next succeeding activity is a burst activity, in which case the smallest LF of all preceding activities is selected.

  9. Determining Slack (or Float) • Free Slack (or Float) • The amount of time an activity can be delayed without delaying connected successor activities • Total Slack • The amount of time an activity can be delayed without delaying the entire project • The critical path is the network path(s) that has (have) the least slack in common.

  10. Sensitivity of a Network • The likelihood the original critical path(s) will change once the project is initiated. • Function of: • The number of critical paths • The amount of slack across near critical activities
