on time; Late = project finished late; FP = favorable software progress in the first five months; NP = learning nothing new in the first five months; and UP = unfavorable software progress in the first five months. Consider the decision tree shown in Figure 1 where the nodes have been numbered for easy reference. The decision choices at the initial decision node (D1) are: SW Only, Delay HW, and HW Now. Do we need to consider all three decision options at D1? Note that there is no explicit
