A Gantt chart is a type of bar chart, that illustrates a project schedule. Design structure matrix is a simple, compact and visual representation of a system or project in the form of a matrix. It is the equivalent of an adjacency matrix in graph theory, and is used in project management to model the structure of complex systems or processes ...
PERT network chart for a seven-month project with five milestones (10 through 50) and six activities (A through F).. 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.
A grow light is an electric light that can help plants grow. Grow lights either attempt to provide a light spectrum similar to that of the sun, or to provide a spectrum that is more tailored to the needs of the plants being cultivated (typically a varying combination of red and blue light, which generally appears pink to purple to the human eye).
The project has two critical paths: activities B and C, or A, D, and F – giving a minimum project time of 7 months with fast tracking. Activity E is sub-critical, and has a float of 1 month. The critical path method ( CPM ), or critical path analysis ( CPA ), is an algorithm for scheduling a set of project activities. [ 1 ]
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 ...
A sample burndown chart for a completed iteration. It will show the remaining effort and tasks for each of the 21 work days of the 1-month iteration. A burndown chart or burn-down chart is a graphical representation of work left to do versus time. [1] The outstanding work (or backlog) is often on the vertical axis, with time along the horizontal.
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.
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.
