2. Critical path method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_path_method

   The critical path method (CPM), or critical path analysis (CPA), is an algorithm for scheduling a set of project activities. [1] A critical path is determined by identifying the longest stretch of dependent activities and measuring the time [2] required to complete them from start to finish. It is commonly used in conjunction with the program ...

3. Critical path drag - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_path_drag

   Critical path drag. Critical path drag is a project management metric [1] developed by Stephen Devaux as part of the Total Project Control (TPC) approach to schedule analysis and compression [2] in the critical path method of scheduling. Critical path drag is the amount of time that an activity or constraint on the critical path is adding to ...

4. Program evaluation and review technique - Wikipedia

   PERT is a method of analyzing the tasks involved in completing a project, especially the time needed to complete each task, and to identify the minimum time needed to complete the total project. It incorporates uncertainty by making it possible to schedule a project while not knowing precisely the details and durations of all the activities.

   Beta distribution is a combination of probability theory and statistics, most commonly used in project management for time allocation and to analyse random variables. Critical path drag is a project management metric used to schedule analysis and compression in the critical path method of scheduling. Drag cost is the reduction in the expected ...

6. Project management triangle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_management_triangle

   Project management triangle. The project management triangle (called also the triple constraint, iron triangle and project triangle) is a model of the constraints of project management. While its origins are unclear, it has been used since at least the 1950s. [1] It contends that:

7. Brooks's law - Wikipedia

   It is also important to determine if the project is really late, or if the schedule was originally overly optimistic. Scheduling mistakes account for a large number of late projects. Correcting the schedule is the best way to have a meaningful and reliable time frame for the project's completion.
