Q1. In a development project, if an activity (i,j) of six days duration, starts late on 3rd day then which of the following will be its latest finish time?

9th day 2nd day 3rd day 18th 2-Which of the following value is correct for the expected time of an activity having optimistic, pessimistic and most likely times as 4, 8 and 6 days respectively?

  1. 66 days
  2. 33 days

6 days

  1. 66 days

In the relation of finding the expected time of an activity, most likely time is weighted more than the other optimistic and pessimistic times and these exist in the ratio of -----------.

6:1 2:1 4:1 3:1 4While finding the Critical Path, in the phase of Late Start and Late Finish, we start from last node and the computations are performed from -------- up to the beginning event.

5-In a Project Management, if the Critical activities of a network are delayed then ---------.

project finish time will have to extend project cost will increase more resources have to employed All above choices are equivalent 6In PERT, the possible variation in activity times can be measured from --------------- of the corresponding Beta Distribution.

Variance Mean Expected Time Standard Deviation 7In Project Management, Critical Path method is based on ------------- times.

deterministic probabilistic stochastic serial 8While identifying the Critical Path of a network flow diagram, the Late Start and Late Finish phase confirms that project start time is -----------.

serial zero infinity arbitrary

10- Which of the following Probabilistic time in PERT has the same analogical meaning of Deterministic time (time to complete any activity) in CPM?

Expected

11- Which of the following is the objective of Project Management by using PERT and CPM methods, for any project subject to resource constraints?

To minimize the project time To maximize the total project profit
