Critical path method
The critical path method (CPM), or critical path analysis (CPA), is an algorithm for scheduling a set of project activities. A critical path is determined by identifying the longest stretch of dependent activities and measuring the time required to complete them from start to finish. It is commonly used in conjunction with the program evaluation and review technique (PERT).
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia PERT chart for a project with five milestones (10 through 50) and six activities (A through F). The project has two critical paths: activities B and C, or A, D, and F – giving a minimum project time of 7 months with fast tracking. Activity E is sub-critical, and has a float of 1 month. The critical path method (CPM), or critical path analysis (CPA), is an algorithm for scheduling a set of project activities.[1] A critical path is determined by identifying the longest stretch of dependent activities and measuring the time[2] required to complete them…
