Lecture 12 Example of CPM

The document provides examples and questions about critical path method (CPM) network analysis. It includes examples of preparing arrow network diagrams based on given activities and durations, calculating earliest and latest start times, and identifying critical paths and activities. It then provides two questions involving performing the same CPM analysis steps on additional sets of project activities and durations.
