A.

Summary Introduction

Interpretation: Thepredecessors of every activity in the project are to be determined.

Concept Introduction: Network diagram is a graphical representation of tasks and events happening in a project. It depicts the workflow and is used to compute the total duration of the project.

B.

Summary Introduction

Interpretation: The critical path is to be identified by enumerating all the paths from node 1 to node 10 and computing the duration.

A project consists of the activities in the following list. Times are given in weeks. Activity Preceding Time A -- 8 B -- 4 C A, B 7 D A, B 3 E C, D 5 F C, D 6 G E, F 4   Draw the project network diagram. Calculate each activity's ES, EF, LS, LF, and Slack using the project activity nodes on the project network diagram. What is the project completion time? Identify the critical path
11-16 Jean Walker is making plans for spring break at the beaches in Florida. In applying techniques she learned in her quantitative methods class, she has identified the activities that are necessary to prepare for her trip. The following table lists the activities and the immediate predecessors. Draw the network for this project. 11-17 The following are the activity times for the project in Problem 11-16. Find the earliest, latest, and slack times for each activity. Then find the critical path.  These problems go together and are deterministic times.
The following is the data available for a project:  Activity  Predecessor  Expected Duration (Days)  A  -  12  B  A  9  C  B,E  3  D  -  10  E  D  6  F  E  3  G  -  2  H  G  9  I  E,H  2    Expected duration for the completion of the project. Calculate earliest and latest start and finish times for each activity. Draw the network diagram for the project and determine the critical path
