- I need assistance with the following questions in: Project Scheduling. This is a follow up to a question answered earlier. Question 1) was answered. 1) A company decides to plan a project, with activities, precedences and deterministic durations given in the following table: Activity i Duration (days) Immediate Predecessors A 32 none B 21 none C 30 none D 45 A E 26 A, B F 28 C G 20 E, F 2) The company decided that the project in the previous problem has to be expedited in order to optimize (minimize) the project cost. Expediting can be used to trade direct cost for indirect cost, since expediting the project reduces the indirect cost of the project by a fixed amount per day, while expediting an activity increases its total direct cost. The Accounting Department found that indirect costs amount to $100 per day, while activity direct costs as well as their normal and expedited times are given in the table below.…Avondale Industries’ training and development office was asked to develop and implement a training program for its engineers located in its Bengaluru, India site.

The training was delivered as requested, but three months later the managers reported they had seen no improvement in meeting project delivery deadlines. Which statement best explains why the training was not effective? Cultural differences were not accounted for when the training and development team organized the training and was thus not effective. The engineers relied too heavily on…I need a detailed explanation and assistance to solve this problem: A company decides to plan a project, with activities, precedences and random duration statistics given in the following table: Activity Immediate Predecessors Duration Minimum (weeks) Duration Mode (weeks) Duration Maximum (weeks) A none 2 5 9 B A 1 6 8 C A 3 5 12 D B 2 4 12 E B, C 4 6 8 F B 6 7 8 G D, E 1 2 6 H F, G 4 6 16 * What method should be used?

- Please, I need help because I have no idea how to do any of these. 11. Building a backyard swimming pool consists of nine major activities. The activities and their immediate predecessors are shown. Develop the project network. For question number 12, you need to refer to question number 11. Also the first picture is for #11 and second picture(image) is for #12 12. Assume that the activity time estimates (in days) for the swimming pool construction project in Problem 11 are as follows: a. What are the critical activities? b. What is the expected time to complete the project? c. Based only on the critical path, what is the estimated probability that the project can be completed in 25 or fewer days?The product development group at Landon Corporation has been working on a new computer software product that has the potential to capture a large market share. Through outside sources, Landon's management learned that a competitor is working to introduce a similar product. As a result, Landon's top management increased its pressure on the product development group. The group's leader turned to PERT/CPM as an aid to scheduling the activities remaining before the new product can be brought to the market. The project network is depicted in the following diagram. A project network with 12 activities and 15 directed arcs is shown. Activity Start is connected to activity A and to activity B. Activity A is connected to activity D. Activity B is connected to activity C, to activity E, and to activity F. Activity C is connected to activity D. Activity D is connected to activity I.
