The product development group at “Griffin” Company has already worked on new computer software products that has potential to know a large market share. Via an outside source, London Management has learned that a competitor is working to bring a similar product to market. As a result, London's top management increased its pressure on the product development group. Group leaders have turned to CPM / PERT as an aid to scheduling remaining activities before new products can be brought to market. The estimated time of activity in a day is as follows Question: Create an initial network Find the cost and the duration Determine the path and critical activities
