the project is completed on the schedule date,
how many weeks before that date should he
start the project work?
Solution:
The network diagram for the given data is

shown in fig. below. The earliest time and
variance of each activity is computed by using
the formula.
(ii) Calculation activity duration and scheduling

times.
(iii) The critical path of the project is 1-2-4-5 -6,

critical activities being A, D, G and H.
The expected project length is the sum of

duration of each critical activity. Expected
project length = 5 + 15 + 4 + 5 = 29 weeks.
Variance project length is obtained by summing

variance of each critical activity.
(Iv) The required probability can be determined

by finding the area under the normal curve to

Now, the probability of completing the project

within the 30 week deadline is
(v) If the project start T weeks before the due

date, the X will represent the ordinate under
normal curve to the left of which 99% of area
lies.
ADVERTISEMENTS:

activities has the following
characteristics:
Determine the critical path
Solution:
Network for the given project is drawn

below:
Value of expected time for each activity is

Time [Earliest & latest] are calculated as

follows:
As we can see there are two critical paths along

which E-values and L-values are similar, but the
longest network of critical activities is known as
critical path.
Critical path is 1-2-3-6-7-8
Expected length of critical path is = 6 + 3 + 4 +

2 + 2 = 17 weeks
Example 3:
Product manager has planned a list of activities

culminating in the inaugurate launch of the new
products.
These are given in the table below:
What is the probability that product manager

will be able to complete the language launch
within 80 days-time?
Solution:
Network diagram for given problem is

shown in following fig:
Expected time value for each activity of given

network is listed in table below along with three
variance.
Value of earliest & latest time is

calculated on the basis of expected time
te as follows:
Value of earliest & latest time is

calculated on the basis of expected time
te as follows:
Hence critical path along with E-value and L-

value are same i.e., 1- 2-4-5-6-7- 8-9 Expected
project duration is 172.83 days
Variance of project length = Sum of variance of

each critical activity = 6.25 + 0.44 + 32.11

For Z = -2.77 Probability of completing the

project with 80 days-time i.e., 0.3%.
Example 4:
A Project is composed of seven activities whose

time estimates are listed in the following table.
Activities are simplified by this beginning (1)

Calculate expected project length.
Solution:
Calculation of expected time for each

activity is shown in following table:
E- Values and L- values are calculated on

the basis of expected time are as follows:
Network diagram for given project along

with E-values and L-values is shown by
following Fig:
Critical path for the above network 1-3-5-6

shown by double lines; along with E- values and
L-values are same.
Expect project length will be = 4 + 6+ 7 = 17
