Week 4 Assignment Name: Amolak Singh ID: 300836228 Critical chain: Critical chain method of planning and managing different projects that used the resources such as equipment, people etc to execute the project tasks. This method is developed by Eliyahu M. Goldratt. This method is very different from other methods such as critical path and PERT. This allows rigid scheduling and task order to the projects. Critical chain helps to leveled the resources and keep the projects flexible in executing

CRITICAL CHAIN METHOD Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) is a methodology for planning, executing and managing projects in single and multi-project environments. Critical Chain Project Management was developed by Dr Eli Goldratt and was first introduced to the market in his Theory of Constraints book “Critical Chain” in 1997. It was developed in response to many projects being dogged by poor performance manifested in longer than expected durations, frequently missed deadlines, increased costs

project. It defines the project. The WBS is created from the scope and is the basis on which several other project documents, such as the budget and schedule, will be derived from. Because the WBS is one of the foundations to our planning effort, it is critical to know and understand this tool. Shortcomings in the scope or WBS will translate to the rest of our planning documents resulting in real failures during project execution to attain goals in scope, cost, and schedule. It is, therefore, of primary

Gray and Larson (2005, chapter 8), there are four major stages of the resource scheduling process. These stages are resource definition, resource allocation, resource aggregation, and resource leveling. Resource definition involves identifying the critical resources that need to be planned and managed for the successful completion of the project. In a multi-project environment as projects are competing for scarce resources, resource allocation addresses the problem of the optimum use and timing of

25/03/15 (b) Critical chain project management This method was developed by Dr. Eliyahu Goldratt and introduced in his book ‘Critical Chain’ (1997). It applies his Theory of Constraints to address project delivery issues, such as missed deadlines and increased costs and it focuses on eliminating delays due to uncertainty and over-estimation of task duration. The critical chain is comprised of the tasks which result in the longest path to project completion, with critical resources assigned

92507 In a recent paper1 we have shown that the dissipation driven quantum phase transition of the 2D xy model represents a universality class where the correlations at criticality is local in space and power law in time. Here we provide a detailed analysis of the model. The local criticality is brought about by the decoupling of infrared singularities in space and time. The former leads to a Kosterlitz Thouless transition whereby the excitations of the transverse component of the velocity field (vortices)
