  2. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeric_precision_in...

    Excel's storage of numbers in binary format also affects its accuracy. [3] To illustrate, the lower figure tabulates the simple addition 1 + x − 1 for several values of x. All the values of x begin at the 15 th decimal, so Excel must take them into account. Before calculating the sum 1 + x, Excel first approximates x as a binary number

  3. Graphical path method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphical_path_method

    CPM calculates available slippage in Free Float and Total Float. CPM measures Free Float by how much a predecessor activity may be delayed without causing a delay to its nearest successor activity. In GPM this is called buffer and it is calculated as the minimum of the link gaps for all logic ties to successor objects.

  4. Precedence diagram method - Wikipedia

    Any activities which have a slack of 0, they are on the critical path. solving the PDM, with: BS is an early start date. BM is a late start date. KS is an early finish date. KM is a late finish date. Different Precedence diagram Methods Arrow diagramming method; Project network; Critical-path method; Gantt chart; Program evaluation and review ...

  5. 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.

    subsequent tasks ("free float") project completion date ("total float"). Total float is associated with the path. [2]: 508 [1]: 183 If a project network chart/diagram has 4 non-critical paths, then that project would have 4 total float values. The total float of a path is the combined free float values of all activities in a path.

  7. Program evaluation and review technique - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program_Evaluation_and...

    The critical path is aceg and the critical time is 19.51 work days. It is important to note that there can be more than one critical path (in a project more complex than this example) or that the critical path can change. For example, let's say that activities d and f take their pessimistic (b) times to complete instead of their expected (T E ...

  8. Single-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-precision_floating...

    Before the widespread adoption of IEEE 754-1985, the representation and properties of floating-point data types depended on the computer manufacturer and computer model, and upon decisions made by programming-language designers. E.g., GW-BASIC's single-precision data type was the 32-bit MBF floating-point format.

  9. Resource smoothing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resource_smoothing

    In project management, resource smoothing is defined by A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK Guide) as a "resource optimization technique in which free and total float are used without affecting the critical path" of a project. [1]
