a. AOA network diagram:
Explanation of Solution
Draw an Activity on Arrow (AOA) network diagram representing the project given in Table 6.2 of the book. To accomplish the network diagram, follow the following steps:-
1. Put the node numbers 1 to 9 in circles.
2. Find all of the activities that start at node 1. Draw arrows between node 1 and those finish nodes. Put the activity letter and duration estimate on the associated arrow. In this case, Draw an edge from node 1 to 2 and label it as A=2. Label A=2 means activity A has a duration of 2 days.
3. Continue drawing the project network diagram until all activities are included on the diagrams that have dependencies.
4. Label each arrow with the activity letter and estimated time. The below network diagram has 11 arrows corresponding to 11 rows in the table.
- Draw second edge from node 2 to 3 and label it as B=2...
b. All paths on the network diagram:
Explanation of Solution
To identify all the paths on the network diagram, just follow the arrows to identify distinct routes from node 1 to node 9.
To find out length of each path, just add the duration for all activities on that path.
Path No | Route | Length / Total Duration |
c. Critical path for this project
Explanation of Solution
The longest path in the network diagram is the critical path...
d. Shortest possible time needed to complete this project:
Explanation of Solution
The critical path represents the shortest time requir...

For each activity, calculate its early finish (TE), late finish (TF) and slack time (ST). You may label ET, TE and TF in the network diagram.arrow_forwardDraw Activity diagram for this scenario When the employee ( customer to us ) encounters an issue he cant solve he goes to tawasol ( the company ticketing system ) and open a ticket for the issue in the correct section and select the issue genre, explain it and add his contact info then the ticket get assigned automatically by the system to the right IT support team, from there the team in head quarter office in Riyadh assign the task to specific member based on geographic location of the issue and the nature of the issue and the competence needed. After that the team member can see it in his/her ticketing system and can assign the status of the process is it active, pending for some reason or resolved . Then the assigned member will contact the customer to further understand the issue and decide if it could be done remotely or physically, if remotely then the assigned member need to contact the network team to allow access for remote applications on that network. Then when the issue is…arrow_forward
- Question 3 Draw an activity Diagram in draw.io and screenshot it for me. Scenario The exam unit uses the system after the subject registration period has closed. The system will display a list of subjects that have registered students. Using this list, the exam unit will plan out examination week. Examination week lasts 6 days, from Monday to Saturday. For each day, the exam unit will assign a subject to that day. Each day can have a total of 6 examination hours with subjects having 2- hour or 3-hour examinations. For example, if the subjects are 2-hour examinations, then 3 of them can be scheduled for the day and if the subjects are 3-hour examinations, then only 2 of them can be scheduled for the day. There can also be a mixture of 2-hour and 3-hour examinations. If the exam unit schedules too many examination hours for that day then the day resets and the exam unit needs to reschedule again. This process stops when all subjects have been scheduled.arrow_forward1. Draw an Activity-On-Arrow (AOA) network diagram representing the project. Put the node numbers in circles and draw arrows from node to node, labelling each arrow with the activity letter and estimated duration. 2.

Given the potential global implications of the outcome.arrow_forwardConsider the following table and answer the following questions. All duration estimates or estimated times are in days, and the network proceeds from Node 1 to Node 9. 1. Draw an AOA network diagram representing the project. 2. Prepare a Gantt Chart considering the start date of the project as 1s" November. Make necessary assumptions where required. 3. Identify all of the paths on the network diagram and note how long they are, using Figure 6-8 as guide for how to represent each path. 4.
