2. Linear scheduling method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_scheduling_method

   Application. 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. The main advantages of LSM over critical path method (CPM) is its underlying idea of keeping ...

3. Gantt chart - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gantt_chart

   A Gantt chart is a type of bar chart [4][5] that illustrates a project schedule. [6] This chart lists the tasks to be performed on the vertical axis, and time intervals on the horizontal axis. [4][7] The width of the horizontal bars in the graph shows the duration of each activity. [7][8] Gantt charts illustrate the start and finish dates of ...

4. 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 ...

5. Schedule (project management) - Wikipedia

   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 ...

7. 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 ...
