  • 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...

  • 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...

  • Critical path budgeting : a synthesis of budgeting and critical path scheduling

    Creator:
    Dervitsiotis, Kostas N.
    Abstract:
    Critical Path Budgeting is introduced as an integrating tool for project planning, coordination, and control. Through a synthesis of budgeting and critical path scheduling, it is possible to treat the time and cost variables of a project explicitly. Thus, one can analyze the behavior of the firm as an approximation...

  • Scheduling repetitive projects using the economic scheduling path procedure

    Creator:
    Sprenger, Donald Lee
    Abstract:
    Economic Scheduling Path (ESP) is an extension to the Critical Path Method. It was developed by Professors Riggs and Inoue of Oregon State University to effectively optimize resource utilization in repeated projects. This paper summarizes the Economic Scheduling Path terminology, ladder network representations, algorithms, and progress charts as originally presented...

  • 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...
