2. Linear scheduling method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_scheduling_method

   LSM is used mainly in the construction industry to schedule resources in repetitive activities commonly found in highway, pipeline, high-rise building and rail construction projects. These projects are called repetitive or linear projects.

3. List of statistical tools used in project management - Wikipedia

   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 return on investment for a project due to an activity's or constraint's critical path drag. It is often used to justify additional resources that cost less than the ...

4. Construction estimating software - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Construction_estimating...

   Construction cost estimating software is computer software designed for contractors to estimate construction costs for a specific project. A cost estimator will typically use estimating software to estimate their bid price for a project, which will ultimately become part of a resulting construction contract. Some architects, engineers ...

5. Time–distance diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time–distance_diagram

   A time–distance diagram is a chart with two axes: one for time, the other for location. The units on either axis depend on the type of project: time can be expressed in minutes (for overnight construction of railroad modification projects such as the installation of switches) or years (for large construction projects); the location can be (kilo)meters, or other distinct units (such as ...

6. Critical path method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_path_method

   Critical path analysis is commonly used with all forms of projects, including construction, aerospace and defense, software development, research projects, product development, engineering, and plant maintenance, among others. Any project with interdependent activities can apply this method of mathematical analysis.

7. Program evaluation and review technique - Wikipedia

   The program evaluation and review technique (PERT) is a statistical tool used in project management, which was designed to analyze and represent the tasks involved in completing a given project. PERT was originally developed by Charles E. Clark for the United States Navy in 1958; it is commonly used in conjunction with the Critical Path Method ...
