Project Management: Cpm/Pert

This document discusses project management techniques like critical path method (CPM) and program evaluation and review technique (PERT). It provides three examples of network diagrams for projects with multiple activities and dependencies. For each example, it asks to draw the network diagram, identify the critical path, and calculate total slack and project duration. It also provides examples of network diagrams with optimistic, most likely, and pessimistic times to calculate project duration probabilities.
