  2. Program evaluation and review technique - Wikipedia

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

    Activity f has an LF of 19.51 and an EF of 14.83, so the slack is 4.68 work days. Therefore, activity b can be delayed almost 4 work days without delaying the project. Likewise, activity d or activity f can be delayed 4.68 work days without delaying the project (alternatively, d and f can be delayed 2.34 work days each). A completed network ...

  3. 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 ").

  4. Project network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_network

    A project network diagram is a graph that displays the order in which a project’s activities are to be completed. Derived from the work breakdown structure, the terminal elements of a project are organized sequentially based on the relationship among them.

  5. Slack variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slack_variable

    Slack variables give an embedding of a polytope into the standard f-orthant, where is the number of constraints (facets of the polytope). This map is one-to-one (slack variables are uniquely determined) but not onto (not all combinations can be realized), and is expressed in terms of the constraints (linear functionals, covectors).

  6. Algorithms for calculating variance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithms_for_calculating...

    This algorithm can easily be adapted to compute the variance of a finite population: simply divide by n instead of n − 1 on the last line.. Because SumSq and (Sum×Sum)/n can be very similar numbers, cancellation can lead to the precision of the result to be much less than the inherent precision of the floating-point arithmetic used to perform the computation.

  7. Critical path method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_path_method

    This determines the shortest time possible to complete the project. "Total float" (unused time) can occur within the critical path. For example, if a project is testing a solar panel and task 'B' requires 'sunrise', a scheduling constraint on the testing activity could be that it would not start until the scheduled time for sunrise. This might ...

  8. Variance reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variance_reduction

    The variance of randomly generated points within a unit square can be reduced through a stratification process. In mathematics , more specifically in the theory of Monte Carlo methods , variance reduction is a procedure used to increase the precision of the estimates obtained for a given simulation or computational effort.
