2. Graphical path method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphical_path_method

   This requires a standby calculation engine to perform a forward pass and a backward pass of the entire network when planning ceases or when an interim calculation is necessary for further planning. The result is that planning and scheduling are separate processes performed in sequential order.

3. Precedence diagram method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precedence_Diagram_Method

   The precedence diagram method (PDM) is a tool for scheduling activities in a project plan. It is a method of constructing a project schedule network diagram that uses boxes, referred to as nodes, to represent activities and connects them with arrows that show the dependencies. It is also called the activity-on-node (AON) method.

4. Scheduling (production processes) - Wikipedia

   Forward scheduling is planning the tasks from the date resources become available to determine the shipping date or the due date. Backward scheduling is planning the tasks from the due date or required-by date to determine the start date and/or any changes in capacity required. The benefits of production scheduling include:

5. Schedule (project management) - Wikipedia

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

   The project schedule is a calendar that links the tasks to be done with the resources that will do them. It is the core of the project plan used to show the organization how the work will be done, commit people to the project, determine resource needs, and used as a kind of checklist to make sure that every task necessary is performed.

6. Project network - Wikipedia

   Project dependencies can also be depicted by a predecessor table. Although such a form is very inconvenient for human analysis, project management software often offers such a view for data entry. An alternative way of showing and analyzing the sequence of project work is the design structure matrix or dependency structure matrix.

7. Critical path method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_path_method

   Since project schedules change on a regular basis, CPM allows continuous monitoring of the schedule, which allows the project manager to track the critical activities, and alerts the project manager to the possibility that non-critical activities may be delayed beyond their total float, thus creating a new critical path and delaying project ...
