The following table provides data for a project. Use the data to answer the following questions

1. Draw a network to represent the above project.

2. What is the critical path? What is the expected completion time? What is the variance of the project completion time? (Complete the expected task time and variance of time calculations.)

3. The project manager realizes that it is best to take at least 20 weeks to complete the project. However, she also thinks that delaying the project past 26 weeks will result in considerable loss for the company. What is the probability that it will take between 20 and 26 weeks to complete the project?

4. For the next two parts, assume that the expected times you calculated are the deterministic single point estimates of time. Because of work in other projects, the manager realizes that is very likely that activity B will take 5 more weeks than initially determined. What is the new completion time for the project, given this information?

5. The manager wants to reduce the project time by two weeks. How can this be achieved? What are the implications? (Answer this question conceptually.)

processing package for the personal computer in your office. Because your employer will pay for the package you are not concerned about the

cost, but you would like a package which is as easy to use as possible and which also has a wide range of functions such as a thesaurus, spell checker and graphics.

After discussing the matter with a friend who is something of an expert in this field, you identify seven potential packages and allocate values to them to reflect their

ease of use and available facilities. These values are shown below (0 = worst, 100 = best).

(a) Plot each package's value for 'ease of use' and 'facilities available' on a graph and hence determine the packages which lie on the efficient frontier.

(b) Suppose that you judge that a switch from a package with the least facilities available to one with the most facilities is only 60% as attractive as a switch from a

package which is the least easy to use to one which is the most easy to use. Assuming that mutual preference independence exists between the two attributes,

which package should you choose?

(c) After some reflection you realize that the extra facilities available on a package will be of little value to you if they are going to be difficult to use. What does this imply about your method of analysis in (b)?
