Study Notes
- Network diagrams require familiarity with network conventions, such as the use of Arrow and Nodes.
- There are two conventions for making a network diagram: Activity on Arrow (AOA) and Activity on Node (AON).
- Events are points in time that represent the beginning or end of activities.
- Activities are dependent on each other and cannot begin until after the completion of all preceding activities.
- The network diagram does not describe time relationships but rather dependency relationships.
- The network diagram is hardly ever done by a single person and should involve input from various stakeholders.
- The fundamental elements of PERT/CPM networking are activity, event, and time.
- Dummy activities may be used in the network to distinguish two or more parallel activities.
- Duration of an activity is the time it takes to finish and is the span of time from the Early Start to its Early Finish or from its Late Start to its Late Finish.
- A path is a sequence of activities that leads from the starting node to the finishing node.
