Which of the following can be used without coordinating with managers of succeeding activities

The forward pass in project network calculations determines all of the following EXCEPT

Free

Multiple Choice

Answer:

Answer:

D
Explanation: The forward pass starts with the first project activity(ies)and traces each path (chain of sequential activities)through the network to the last project activity(ies).It calculates how soon an activity can start, how soon it can finish and the project duration or how soon the project will be finished.

Bill is building a project network that involves testing a prototype.He must design the prototype (activity 1), build the prototype (activity 2), and test the prototype (activity 3).Activity 1 is the predecessor for activity 2 and activity 2 is the predecessor for activity 3.If the prototype fails testing, Bill must redesign the prototype; therefore, activity 3 is a predecessor for activity 1.This is an example of

Multiple Choice

Answer:

Answer:

B
Explanation: This is an example of looping or recycling through a set of activities and cannot take place within a well-structured project network.One important reason is that it inhibits its ability to establish a completion date.

Which of the following represents an activity on an activity-on-node (AON)project network?

Free

Multiple Choice

Answer:

Answer:

C
Explanation: The two approaches used to develop project networks are known as activity-on-node (AON)and activity-on-arrow (AOA).Both methods use two building blocks-the arrow and the node.Their names derive from the fact that the former uses a node to depict an activity.

A(n)_________ activity has more than one dependency arrow flowing from it.

Multiple Choice

Which of the following is NOT one of the basic rules to follow when developing project networks?

Multiple Choice

An activity that has more than one dependency arrow flowing into it is termed a(n)

Multiple Choice

________ activities are to be completed immediately following a particular activity.

Multiple Choice

Which of the following is not one of the basic rules to follow when developing project networks?

Which of the following is NOT one of the basic rules to follow when developing project networks? Conditional statements are allowed but looping statements are not allowed.

Which of the following is provided by both the project at work and the work breakdown structure?

The project network is a visual flow diagram of the sequence, interrelationships, dependencies and timing of all the activities that must be accomplished to complete the project. Both the WBS and the work packages will include the duration of the activity.

Which activities are to be completed immediately following a particular activity?

Activities that must follow immediately after an activity are called successor activities. 3. Activities that can occur while an activity is take place is known as a concurrent or parallel relationship.

What sort of activity has more than one dependency arrow flowing from it?

Burst Activity: an activity that has more than one activity immediately following it (more than one dependency arrow flowing from it).
