Analysis of human and equipment performance in critical path scheduling

Creator:

Gordon, Richard Allen

Abstract:

The utilization of historical data is suggested as an approach to solving some of the difficulties involved in the estimating of activity durations in critical path scheduling. The historical data presented show the effects of various weather conditions upon the performance of human labor and mechanical equipment. When combined with...

AN ABSTRACT OT' THE THESIS OF Richard AIIen Cordon
A practical way to include merge bias in calculating total project duration of a PERT network

Creator:

Rawal, Subhash Chander

Abstract:

Uncertainty of the magnitude of merge bias in PERT networks has long been of concern to the users of this technique. A simple rule to determine the magnitude has since posed a problem. The purpose of this thesis was to develop empirical rules to correct the time estimates of cumulative...

Critical path scheduling : tableau method

Creator:

Inoue, Michael Shigeru

Abstract:

The concept of a Critical Path Scheduling Tableau is introduced as an integrating tool for solving industrial engineering problems involving the application of transitive graphs. The Tableau is a combination of a precedence matrix and a boundary time table which may be used to construct graphical representations for critical path...
