...335 Name:Qinghua Chu ID: Date: 03/12/2013 Words: [pic] Question 2 (160 words): The activity network diagram is a method of displaying the timelines of all the various subtasks that are involved in any project.[1] Basically, two kinds of activities are required in the network diagram. There are activities in series and activities in parallel. For example, in the diagram of Question 1, Step A and Step B are activities in series and Step C, D, E and F are activities in parallel. For activities in series, Step B cannot start before step A finished. But for activities in parallel, like Step C, D, E and F, all of them are did at the same time. http://www.pmhut.com/critical-path-mapping-with-activity-network-diagrams [pic]G. 1 As G. 1, the first box on the top is Early start time(EST) and the next is Duration time(DUR). So EST plus DUR is the early finish time(EFT) and the EST in the next step as well. Last start time(LST) is different between Last finish time(LFT) and DUR. Total float(TR) between LST and LFT is LFT minus EST and DUR.[2][3] [2]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4m3tZ_TuTg [3]Project Management, Field and Keller (2007, p197, p198 and p391) Question 3: (Words: 136) Duration is the period required to complete an activity, job, or task, usually excluding holidays and other non-working days.[4] For example, in the activity C, duration is ‘10’ between EST and EFT. Which means they use 10 days to do work. Longest sequence of activities in a...

...1. Draw the network diagram (use activity on the node). Please refer to appendix I. 2. Explain how you determined the timing of activities and the total float. According to the diagram of Cassop Ltd, the earliest start time (EST) is zero for activity A. Therefore, EST equals the earliest finish time (EFT) of the predecessor. An example from the diagram as EST of activity D is EFT of activity B (i.e. 8 days). EFT is calculated when the duration of any activity is added to the EST. The equation will be: EFT = EST + Duration i.e, EFT of B = 4 days + 4 days Activity that with the longest duration can be known as the critical activity (Baker, B 2001, Nestor). From the activities of Cassop Ltd, activity B has the longest duration of 4 days as compared with activity C which is only 2 days. The latest start time (LST) is calculated by adding float to LST of the critical activity (Anon 2007, Maryland). The formula of this scenario is: LST = LST or EST of the critical activity + total float The formula is used for activity C where LST of critical activity B is 4 days plus total float of activity C is 2 day and the addition results in 6 days. The latest finish time (LFT) is latest start time of activity plus duration and the formula as below: Latest finish time = Latest start time + Duration We can use the above formula to calculate the LFT of activity C i.e. LST of C is 6 days and the duration is 2 days. Therefore, LFT for this activity is 8 days. The total...

...SCHEDULE. THE WBS SHOULD BE ACCOMPANIED BY A WBS DICTIONARY, WHICH LISTS AND DEFINES WBS ELEMENTS. The goals of developing a WBS and WBS Dictionary are 1) for the project team to proactively and logically plan out the project to completion, 2) to collect the information about work that needs to be done for a project, and 3) to organize activities into manageable components that will achieve project objectives. The WBS and WBS Dictionary are not the schedule, but rather the building blocks to it. The progression of WBS and WBS Dictionary development is as follows: [pic] The WBS and WBS Dictionary should not be static documents. WBS construction is subject to project management progressive elaboration, and as new information becomes known, the WBS should be revised to reflect that information. A Project Team that has substantial changes to its WBS should reference the project’s Change Management Plan for guidance on management of changes to project scope. Example Below is a simplified WBS example with a limited number of organizing levels. The following list describes key characteristics of the sample WBS: • Hierarchical Levels – contains three levels of work • Numbering Sequence – uses outline numbering as a unique identifier for all levels • Level one is 1.0, which illustrates the project level. • Level two is 1.X (1.1, 1.2, 1.3, etc.), which is...

The mix of local vs. server accounts and the lack of standards for file church and file sharing not only requires more overall administration; but also puts MOBC’s data at risk from loss, theft, or access to private files by individuals who should normally be denied access. In order to provide a consistent model among its church MOBC should follow a standard set of guidelines for storing and sharing files. Additionally, all user accounts should be centralized on the servers at each location. Consistent file storage and sharing model will help users across the church to know where to put files so that they are secure and confidential. MOBC presently does...

...1/21/2015 EST1 Task1 Term Papers Valeriyklimov EST1 Task1 By valeriyklimov | Studymode.com EST 1 TASK 1 Your Name Western Governors University # Student Id EST 1 Task 1 According to the current situation Company Q has a damaged attitude toward social responsibility within their company, all because of low profits being made. Due to high crime rates in certain areas the company has been closing off stores, not realizing the problem they have caused. The people that live in the prospected area where the stores where closed are now forced to travel further for groceries. This causes a problem especially for the poor, who do not have the extra money for extra expenses. I recommend the company take precautionary measures to help catch and promote others not to steal. They could do this by offering a reward, or installing cameras. This would help promote social responsibility within the company. Another very serious problem is the companies unwillingness to donate food for those in need. Especially since the company isn’t losing much or nothing at all by donating. The sudden unwillingness to donate is due to the distrust of the owners with the employees. They believe the employees will start to steal while saying they are donating it to the poor. This is yet another sign of a weak social responsibility within the company. These particular problems and fears are direct situations which concretely damages the social responsibility within the company, as well as the community...

...2012 Professional Plan There are many careers in the criminal justice field that interest me, but the top three are forensic science technician, detective and criminal investigator, and a lawyer. I am interested in these careers for many different reasons and some are the same. I am passionate about catching the “bad guy” and putting “him” away. In order to make the best decision I need to understand how these careers are alike and how they differ. The career that interests me most is a forensic science technician. Many people do not know what a forensic science technician does. Forensic science technicians do many tasks from collecting evidence to conducting experiments in a laboratory. As a forensic science technician I would be responsible for collecting evidence from a crime scene and storing it in the proper conditions to preserve it. Another task of forensic science technicians is to keep records and prepare reports. The reports would detail the findings, the investigative methods, and laboratory techniques used. A forensic science technician may have to use chemicals to examine latent prints and compare them to developed prints known in databases. Sometimes forensic science technicians testify in court about investigative techniques or about analytical methods or findings. It is very important for forensic science technicians to photograph all evidence collected before and after it is moved. References Bureau of Labor Statistics. (2009). Science technicians...
