JM 480 CSUGC Determination of Critical Path of the Project Paper

OPTION #1: DETERMINATION OF CRITICAL PATH OF THE PROJECT

Use the following table to calculate duration (round to 0 decimal places)

Use Activity on Node to construct a network activity diagram with the preceding table.

Use the forward and backward pass method to calculate project duration, based on the assumption that the expected duration of each activity can be calculated using the following formula: Expected Duration = (Pessimistic Duration + 4 x Most Likely Duration + Optimistic Duration)/6. Include slack on the arrows and identify the critical path(s) and burst and merge activities.

Evaluate the finished project and write a review of your analysis and how you completed each step. Include the completed table and your AON diagram in your paper

Your response should be integrated in a well-written paper that meets the following requirements:

• Be 2-3 pages in length plus graphical elements, placing these graphical elements in an appendix,
• Be formatted according to the CSU Global Writing Center (Links to an external site.), and
• Include two scholarly sources from the CSU Global Library (Links to an external site.).
