Define Activities• The process of identifying the specific actions to be performed

produce the project deliverables.• Work package decomposed into activities (schedule activities)

Activity List• The activity list is a comprehensive list including all

schedule activities required on the project.

• The activity list includes the activity identifier and a

scope of work description for each activity in

sufficient detail to ensure that project team members

understand what work is required to be completed

Activity attributes

• Activity attributes extend the description of the activity by identifying the multiple components associated with each activity.

• The components for each activity evolve over time. During the initial stages of the project they include the Activity ID, WBS ID, and Activity Name, and when completed may include activity codes, activity description

• A milestone is a significant point or event in the project. A milestone list identifies all milestones and indicates whether the milestone is mandatory, such as those required by contract, or optional, such as those based upon historical information.

• Sequence Activities• Process of identifying and documenting relationship among the project activities

Inputs

1. Activity list2. Activity attributes3. Milestone list4. Project scope statement5. Organizational process assets

Tools & Techniques

1. Precedence diagramming method (PDM)

2. Dependency determination

3. Applying leads and lags4. Schedule network templates

Outputs

1. Project schedule network diagram

2. Project document updates

Precedence Diagramming Method (PDM)

•  Finish-to-Start (FS)

•  Finish-to-Finish (FF)

•  Start-to-Start (SS)

•  Start-to-Finish (SF)

logical relationships:

• Applying Leads & Lags• Use leads and lags to support realistic and achievable project schedule.

• Each activity is connected at least to one predecessor and one successor except the start and the end.

• Leads.– May be added to start an activity before the predecessor activity is complete.

• Lags– Inserted waiting time between activities

Dependency DeterminationTo define sequence among activity, these type of dependency are used:

1. Mandatory (hard logic)– Inherent in the nature of work being done or required by the contract– E.g. You must design before you can develop

2. Discretionary (preferred, preferential, or soft logic)– Define base on knowledge– Can be changed if needed– Important when how to shorten or re-sequence the project

3. External– Based on the need t of the party outside the project

.1 Project Schedule Network Diagrams

- Project schedule network diagrams are schematic

displays of the project’s schedule activities and the

logical relationships among them, also referred to as

dependencies..

- A project schedule network diagram can be

produced manually or by using project management

Activity-On-Node (AON)

Precedence Diagramming Method (PDM)

•1- you are a project manager on a us $5.000.000 software development Project . While Working with your project team to develop a network diagram ,your data architects suggest that quality could be improver if the data model is approved by senior management before moving on the other design elements. They support this suggestion with an article from a leading software development journal. Which of the following best describes what this type of inputs is called?

•A- mandatory dependency

•B- discretionary dependency

•C- external dependency

•D- heuristic

2- Which of the following is not an activity attribute:

1-Person responsible for the activity

2-Location where to perform the activity

3-Time when to perform the activity

4-Leads and Lags

3-Lag means:

A-the amount of time an activity can be delaying the project

finish date.

B- the amount of time an activity can be delayed without

delaying the early start date of its successor

C- waiting time

D-the product of a forward and backward Pass

•4-Activity Definition is typically performed by which of the following

A-Project Manager who created the WBS

B.Project Team Members responsible for the work package

C.Project Officer

D.Project Stakeholder

5- A schedule activity may begin 10

days before the predecessor activity

finishes This is an example of

A-ADM2-PDMC- A dependency with lag

D- A dependency with lead
