Critical Path MethodIntroductionOnce you have the network diag.docxannettsparrow
Critical Path Method
Introduction
Once you have the network diagrams for the activities, as well as the activity duration estimates, you can begin scheduling the project. The critical path method (CPM) is one of the key techniques for developing a project schedule.
In a schedule network diagram, the critical path is the longest full path linking activities that must be performed in sequence. It's important to identify this path, because if one of its activities is delayed, the end date of your project is delayed too.
CPM provides a way to calculate four time boundaries:
· the early start date, which is the earliest possible start date for each activity to begin
· the early finish date, which is the earliest date each activity can end
· the latest start date, which is the latest possible time for each activity to begin
· the latest finish date, which is the latest date each activity can end
CPM involves completing three steps:
1. performing a forward pass through the network diagram
2. performing a backward pass to check your initial results
3. calculating the float for each activity to determine the critical path
The forward pass
The first step in CPM is performing a forward pass through the schedule network diagram so you can establish the early start and finish dates for each activity. This is done so that resources, such as project team members and equipment, can be allocated as soon as possible. Allocating resources assists in determining project expenditure and therefore establishing the project budget.
When performing a forward pass, you begin with the first activity in the network diagram and move forward. You
1. record the earliest date the first activity can start
2. add the duration of this activity to the early start date
3. subtract one day from the result
Some project managers find it useful to record activities' start and finish times in the network diagram. The early start is usually filled in on the top left corner of each activity block, with the early finish date shown in the right corner.
The backward pass
The second step in determining the critical path for a project is to perform a backward pass through the schedule network diagram.
You perform the backward pass to establish the latest start and finish dates for the project to remain on schedule.
In a backward pass, you start at the end of the project and work back, subtracting the estimated duration of each preceding activity.
To begin the backward pass, the late finish date will either be a hard date that's been set or the early finish date of the last activity in the project. An example of a hard date may be a deadline that determines the project's end date.
To calculate the late start date, you
1. subtract the duration of the last activity from its late finish date
2. add one day because the last day of the project is included as a working day
As you work backward through the schedule network diagram, the late finish date will fall on the working day preceding the lat.
The document discusses project scheduling techniques. It describes the key elements of project scheduling including Gantt charts, PERT, and CPM. These techniques are used to plan project activities, allocate resources, track progress, and identify critical paths. The document also provides examples of network diagrams and guidelines for constructing them. Project scheduling helps project managers communicate work requirements and ensure projects are completed on time and within budget.

This document provides a template for defining project activities, sequencing tasks, and collecting basic project information. The template includes fields for the project title, working title, sponsoring government secretary and agency, preparers, and date, and provides a table to describe each activity, duration, and task predecessors.
The document discusses enhancing the usefulness of MS Project schedules by adding additional fields, customizing views and filters, and using status dates to track project progress and identify tasks that are behind or ahead of schedule. Custom fields are added to indicate work that should be underway or complete by specific dates. The schedule is baselined and status updates show rescheduled tasks and their impacts. Using MS Project effectively requires regular status meetings and revising the schedule as needed based on progress.
This spreadsheet allows users to plan and track projects against requirements. It features the ability to document requirements, projects, and tasks. The spreadsheet is customizable and includes a Gantt chart and heat map to visualize project progress. Cells in grey contain formulas and should not be edited to maintain functionality. Requirements, projects, and tasks are entered on separate tabs and linked together. As tasks are completed, the Gantt chart and heat map automatically update to reflect overall project status.
Microsoft Project is a project management software that allows users to define tasks, assign resources and track schedule and budget. It was first released in 1984 and helps project managers plan by creating Gantt charts and calculating critical paths. Key features include task scheduling, resource allocation, budget tracking and progress monitoring. The software allows defining projects, building plans, assigning resources, tracking progress against baselines and closing completed projects.
This document provides step-by-step guidance for using Microsoft Project to manage projects. It outlines the key steps as: 1) starting the project by creating a new file and defining project details; 2) planning tasks by entering, scheduling and linking tasks; 3) assigning resources to tasks; 4) setting a project baseline for comparison; 5) updating progress by tracking actual dates, durations and changes; and 6) forecasting information.
The document discusses project scheduling and the critical path method (CPM) for project management. It explains that a project schedule lays out the sequence and timing of tasks to transform a project vision into a time-based plan. The critical path method uses a network diagram to identify the longest continuous chain of tasks in a project as the "critical path" that must be followed to complete the project on time. Monitoring and controlling activities on the critical path is essential to keeping the project on schedule.

Critical Path MethodIntroductionOnce you have the network diag.docxannettsparrow
Critical Path Method
Introduction
Once you have the network diagrams for the activities, as well as the activity duration estimates, you can begin scheduling the project. The critical path method (CPM) is one of the key techniques for developing a project schedule.
In a schedule network diagram, the critical path is the longest full path linking activities that must be performed in sequence. It's important to identify this path, because if one of its activities is delayed, the end date of your project is delayed too.
CPM provides a way to calculate four time boundaries:
· the early start date, which is the earliest possible start date for each activity to begin
· the early finish date, which is the earliest date each activity can end
· the latest start date, which is the latest possible time for each activity to begin
· the latest finish date, which is the latest date each activity can end
CPM involves completing three steps:
1. performing a forward pass through the network diagram
2. performing a backward pass to check your initial results
3. calculating the float for each activity to determine the critical path
The forward pass
The first step in CPM is performing a forward pass through the schedule network diagram so you can establish the early start and finish dates for each activity. This is done so that resources, such as project team members and equipment, can be allocated as soon as possible. Allocating resources assists in determining project expenditure and therefore establishing the project budget.
When performing a forward pass, you begin with the first activity in the network diagram and move forward. You
1. record the earliest date the first activity can start
2. add the duration of this activity to the early start date
3. subtract one day from the result
Some project managers find it useful to record activities' start and finish times in the network diagram. The early start is usually filled in on the top left corner of each activity block, with the early finish date shown in the right corner.
The backward pass
The second step in determining the critical path for a project is to perform a backward pass through the schedule network diagram.
You perform the backward pass to establish the latest start and finish dates for the project to remain on schedule.
In a backward pass, you start at the end of the project and work back, subtracting the estimated duration of each preceding activity.
To begin the backward pass, the late finish date will either be a hard date that's been set or the early finish date of the last activity in the project. An example of a hard date may be a deadline that determines the project's end date.
To calculate the late start date, you
1. subtract the duration of the last activity from its late finish date
2. add one day because the last day of the project is included as a working day
As you work backward through the schedule network diagram, the late finish date will fall on the working day preceding the lat.
The document discusses project scheduling techniques. It describes the key elements of project scheduling including Gantt charts, PERT, and CPM. These techniques are used to plan project activities, allocate resources, track progress, and identify critical paths. The document also provides examples of network diagrams and guidelines for constructing them. Project scheduling helps project managers communicate work requirements and ensure projects are completed on time and within budget.
The document provides step-by-step guidance for using Microsoft Project 2013 to plan and manage projects. It outlines 10 steps: 1) starting a project, 2) planning tasks, 3) assigning resources, 4) setting a project baseline, 5) updating progress, 6) viewing report information, 7) creating an S-curve, 8) exporting data to Excel, 9) closing a project, and 10) includes a table of contents. Each step provides detailed instructions on features in MS Project 2013 and how to utilize them for project management.
This document provides step-by-step instructions for creating a project plan in Microsoft Project 2013, including how to start a project, plan tasks, assign resources, set a baseline, update progress, view reports, create an S-curve chart, and export data to Excel. The intended audience is beginners to project management who are familiar with earlier versions of MS Project.
This document provides a template for defining project activities, sequencing tasks, and collecting basic project information. The template includes fields for the project title, working title, sponsoring government secretary and agency, preparers, and date, and provides a table to describe each activity, duration, and task predecessors.
The document discusses enhancing the usefulness of MS Project schedules by adding additional fields, customizing views and filters, and using status dates to track project progress and identify tasks that are behind or ahead of schedule. Custom fields are added to indicate work that should be underway or complete by specific dates. The schedule is baselined and status updates show rescheduled tasks and their impacts. Using MS Project effectively requires regular status meetings and revising the schedule as needed based on progress.
This spreadsheet allows users to plan and track projects against requirements. It features the ability to document requirements, projects, and tasks. The spreadsheet is customizable and includes a Gantt chart and heat map to visualize project progress. Cells in grey contain formulas and should not be edited to maintain functionality. Requirements, projects, and tasks are entered on separate tabs and linked together. As tasks are completed, the Gantt chart and heat map automatically update to reflect overall project status.
Microsoft Project is a project management software that allows users to define tasks, assign resources and track schedule and budget. It was first released in 1984 and helps project managers plan by creating Gantt charts and calculating critical paths. Key features include task scheduling, resource allocation, budget tracking and progress monitoring. The software allows defining projects, building plans, assigning resources, tracking progress against baselines and closing completed projects.
This document provides step-by-step guidance for using Microsoft Project to manage projects. It outlines the key steps as: 1) starting the project by creating a new file and defining project details; 2) planning tasks by entering, scheduling and linking tasks; 3) assigning resources to tasks; 4) setting a project baseline for comparison; 5) updating progress by tracking actual dates, durations and changes; and 6) forecasting information.
The document discusses project scheduling and the critical path method (CPM) for project management. It explains that a project schedule lays out the sequence and timing of tasks to transform a project vision into a time-based plan. The critical path method uses a network diagram to identify the longest continuous chain of tasks in a project as the "critical path" that must be followed to complete the project on time. Monitoring and controlling activities on the critical path is essential to keeping the project on schedule.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

13. You need to install the Analysis ToolPak add-in that comes with
Excel. Go to Tools > Add-ins, and select Analysis ToolPak.
Q: How do I make Task 2 start the day after the end of Task 1?
Use the following formula for the start date of Task 2:
=EndDate+1
where EndDate is the reference to the cell containing the end
date of task 1.
You can also use =WORKDAY(EndDate,1) to exclude
weekends.
Q: How do I add/insert tasks and subtasks?
Copy the entire ROW (or a group of rows) for the type of
task(s) you want to add and then right-click on the row where
you want to insert the new tasks, then select Insert Copied
Cells. You can copy rows from within the gantt chart, or copy
rows from the Template Rows.
Important Note: When inserting a new subtask after the last
subtask or before the first subtask, you will need to update the
formulas for calculating the Level 1 Start Date, %Complete and
Duration, because the ranges won't automatically expand to
include the additional row.
Q: How to I calculate the Start Date for a Level 1 task based
upon its subtasks?
14. Example: If Task 1 is on row 10 and the subtasks are on rows
11-14, use the following formula:
=MIN(D11:D16)
Q: How do I calculate the %Complete for a Level 1 task based
upon the %Complete of all of the associated subtasks?
Example: If Task 1 is on row 10 and the subtasks are on rows
11-14, use the following formula:
=SUMPRODUCT(F11:F14,G11:G14)/SUM(F11:F14)
Q: How do I calculate the Duration for a Level 1 task based
upon the largest end date of a sub task?
Example: If the Level 1 task is on row 10 and the sub tasks are
on rows 11-14, use the following formula
=MAX(D11:D14)-C10+1
Q: How do I change the print settings?
Select the entire range of cells that you want to print and then
go to File > Print Area > Set Print Area. Then go to File > Page
Setup or File > Print Preview and adjust the Scaling and Page
