  2. Coordinate time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_time

    A fuller explanation of the concept of coordinate time arises from its relations with proper time and with clock synchronization. Synchronization, along with the related concept of simultaneity, has to receive careful definition in the framework of general relativity theory, because many of the assumptions inherent in classical mechanics and classical accounts of space and time had to be removed.

  3. Critical path drag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 the project duration.

  4. Time management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_management

    Time management is the process of planning and exercising conscious control of time spent on specific activities—especially to increase effectiveness, efficiency and productivity. [ 1 ] Time management involves demands relating to work , social life , family , hobbies , personal interests and commitments.

  5. Float (project management) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Float_(project_management)

    In project management, float or slack is the amount of time that a task in a project network can be delayed without causing a delay to: [1]: 183 subsequent tasks ("free float") project completion date ("total float"). Total float is associated with the path.

  6. Brooks's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brooks's_law

    Brooks's law is an observation about software project management that "Adding manpower to a late software project makes it later." [1] [2] It was coined by Fred Brooks in his 1975 book The Mythical Man-Month. According to Brooks, under certain conditions, an incremental person when added to a project makes it take more, not less time.

  7. Precision Time Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precision_Time_Protocol

    Synchronization and management of a PTP system is achieved through the exchange of messages across the communications medium. To this end, PTP uses the following message types. Sync, Follow_Up, Delay_Req and Delay_Resp messages are used by ordinary and boundary clocks and communicate time-related information used to synchronize clocks across ...

  8. Timeblocking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeblocking

    Timeblocking or time blocking (also known as time chunking [1]) is a productivity technique for personal time management where a period of time—typically a day or week—is divided into smaller segments or blocks for specific tasks or to-dos.

  9. Pauling's rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pauling's_rules

    For typical ionic solids, the cations are smaller than the anions, and each cation is surrounded by coordinated anions which form a polyhedron.The sum of the ionic radii determines the cation-anion distance, while the cation-anion radius ratio + / (or /) determines the coordination number (C.N.) of the cation, as well as the shape of the coordinated polyhedron of anions.
