event and stopping at the end event of a network
A) Any activity that can be delayed without delaying the whole project
B) The time required to complete all the activities of the project in the specified sequence
Explain the terms: event, predecessor event, successor event, activity, dummy
activity, network.
Event: A point in time in a project that marks the start or completion of an activity.
Events are represented in a network diagram as circles or nodes.
Predecessor event: An event that must be completed before another event or activity
can begin. Predecessor events are connected to successor events or activities with
arrows in a network diagram.
Successor event: An event that can only start after the completion of a predecessor
event or activity. Successor events are also connected to predecessor events or activities
with arrows in a network diagram.
