13f2fPM Session 8 Resouce Allocation

This document discusses network analysis and resource allocation for a project with 8 activities (A through H). It provides: 1) A network diagram showing the precedence and expected duration of each activity in weeks. 2) A modified network diagram showing resource requirements and allocation of manpower (M) and engineers (E) to each activity. 3) A calculation of the probability of completing the project within the scheduled time by estimating time ranges for each activity, calculating expected and variance values, and using the standard normal distribution.

Probability of Computation of the
Project within Scheduled Time
Probability of Project Completeion

• Estimate time estimate of each activity by


estimating (i) most likely estimate, m, (ii)
pessimistic estimate, a, (iii) optimistic
estimate, b.
• Expected time of each activity = (a +4m + b)/6
• Variance of each activity:
σ2 = (b – a)2/36
• Add all the variances
Probability of Project Completeion

• Z = ( t – te )/ σ T
