- A project consists of Six activities: A,B,C,D, E, F. A and B have no preceding activities, but activity C requires that activity B must be completed before C can begin. Activity D cannot start until both activities A and B are complete. Activity F can start any time. Activity E requires activities A and C to be completed before it can start. If the activity times are A: 10 days; B: 4 days; C: 8 days; D: 3 days, E = 2 days, and F: 1 day, * Find out the minimum time possible to complete this project. * Are there any critical path activities? Which one are those?Given a project with three paths and their corresponding path lengths: A-B-C: 25 days, A-D-F: 15 days, and B-C-D-E: 20 days; which of the following statements is TRUE? * Activity B has the most slack The expected duration of the project is 60 days The earliest project completion time is 15 days The critical activities are A, B and CWhich of the following statements regarding CPM is true? Select one : a. The critical path is that set of activities that has positive slack . B.All activities on the critical path have their ES equal to their LF. C.All activities on the critical path have their LS equal to the maximum EF of all immediate predecessors . d . The critical path is the shortest of all paths through the network e . Some networks have no critical path .
- . True/False Statements (Tick the correct option) Selection of the critical path in network activity diagram for any project, is always focused onresult of the minimum time duration of the critical activities [ True / False ] Suppose, we have total 03 activities in the project “X”; namely L, M and N respectively. An activity “M” is the immediate successor of the activity “L”, while the activity “M” is the immediate predecessor for the activity “N”. According to this scenario, an activity “M” will be the last activity of the project “X” in the network activity diagram [True / False ] The dummy activity consumes both time and resources [True / False ] Towards the optimal solution through stepping stone method, when degeneracy problem is occurred, the next step is to focus on searching lowest value on the independent position in a non-allocated cells [True / False ] Hungarian algorithm, first convert any given assignment matrix into row reduction matrix [True / FalseAccording to Goldratt’s critical chain theory, what should you do in order to reduce risk in project schedules? A: Start activities in the feeder chains as late as possible. B: Add buffers to the critical chains. C: Start activities in the critical chains as early as possible. D: Start activities in the feeder chains as early as possible. 2. You are adding duration buffers that are non-workable schedule activities to manage uncertainty in your project schedule. What tool or technique are you using? A: Parametric estimating B: Critical path method C: Three-point estimating D: Critical chain methodActivity A takes 36 hours and can begin as soon as the project begins. Activity B takes 21 hours and should take place after the project has begun. Activity C must happen after Activity A and lasts 31 hours. Activity D must take place after activities B and C takes 26 hours. Activity E must take place after Activity C and lasts 6 hours. Activity F takes place after Activity E and lasts 18 hours. Activities F and D are the project's final activities. Draw the AON for the network diagram and specify the critical path and its duration.
- The activities in a project whose completion times need to be shortened in order to finish the project ahead of schedule are the * Critical activities Noncritical activities Activities with the most slack Activities that require the least resourcesConstruct an AOA for the following set of activities of a project. (a) A, B, and C are the first activities of the project. (b) A precedes D, E, and F. (c) B and D precedes I and G. (d) C and G precedes H. (e) I precedes K and L. (f) E and H precedes J. (g) M and N follows F but cannot start until both E and H are completed. (h) M and I precedes O. (i) J, L, and O precedes P. (i) K, N, and P are the last activities of the project.A project has 92 activities, but only 13 of them are analyzed here.
