Network AnalysisNetwork Analysis
Activity on node diagrams
activity - rectangular box
linked by arrows - order

1. open cereal box

2. put cereal in bowl

3. fetch milk from fridge

4. add milk to cereal EAT
Simple example - Breakfast
Network AnalysisNetwork Analysis
OK that was a simple example
Now move on to a more realistic case
Same principles
Break down problem into activities
What is the activity
What has to precede that activity
How long does the activity take
Don’t panic

Activity on node diagrams in which finish to start (F-S) links have a duration will now be considered
Nature and duration of link shown on arrow
(F-S) Activity 2 cannot start until 1 week after completion of activity 1.

PERTPERT
Programme Evaluation & Review Technique
Developed by US Navy 58-60 for Polaris submarine construction programme
PERT takes into account the difficulty of estimating duration of activity
So uses:
most optimistic duration
most pessimistic duration
most likely duration
PERTPERT

s
uses a frequency distribution
calculates the expected mean duration and the standard deviation as follows:
te = expected mean duration
a = most optimistic duration b = most pessimistic duration
m = most likely duration s = standard deviation

PERTPERTThe variance for the project duration is the sum of the variances of the activities along the critical path
The standard deviation for the duration of
the project is the square root of the variance
