Activity
An activity is an individual task needed for the completion of a project. It is the smallest discrete block of time and resources typically handled by PM software. It is a single task in a project which needs to be done. Multiple Activities are related to each other by identifying their immediate predecessors. Solitary Activities, which have no predecessors or successors, are allowed. Activities can also be called work packages, tasks, or deliverables.
Activity
Activities necessary for the completion of a project is an individual duty. Be addressed by the project management software that are the smallest blocks of time and resources. Precursors are associated with each activity will be defined. Activities, work packages, tasks, and deliveries are also called.
Activity Duration
Activity duration specifies the length of time (hours, days, weeks, months) that it takes to complete an activity. This information is optional in the data entry of an activity. Work flow (predecessor relationships) can be defined before durations are assigned. Activities with zero durations are Considered milestones (milestone value of 1 to 94) or hammocks (milestone value of 95 to 99).
Duration of activity
Activity duration, then the length of time required to complete the activity (in hours, days, weeks, months) is indicated. Workflow (precursors were determined and associated activities), activity has been assigned to defined time periods. Time 0 (zero), the milestone activities (values 1-94) or hammock (95-99 values) are called.
Actual Dates
Actual dates are entered as the project progresses. These are the dates that started and finished as opposed to really Activities Planned or projected dates.
Actual Dates
Actual dates are entered when the project advances. These dates, the planned start and end dates according to the activity that actually dates.
Baseline Schedule
The baseline schedule is a fixed project schedule. It is the standard by which project performance is measured. The current schedule is copied into the baseline schedule which Remains frozen until it is reset. Resetting of the baseline work done when the scope of the project has been significantly changed. At that point, the original or current baseline is compared with Becomes invalid and shout Should the current schedule.
Basic Project Timeline
Basic schedule is a fixed project schedule. A standardtır project performance is measured. If a significant change in the scope of the project to re-create basic charts.
Calendars
A project calendar lists time intervals in which resources can or can not be scheduled or Activities. Usually a project has one default calendar for the normal work week (Monday through Friday), but may as well has other calendars. Each calendar can be customized with its own holidays and extra work days. Activities and resources that can be attached to any of the calendars are defined.
Calendars
Activities or resources within the project time schedule of the program lists the time intervals can be done. The normal work week as a project in general (Monday-Friday) is available with a fixed schedule, but also can have different calendars. Calendars can be created for only one source, a separate calendar for overtime may be applied resources ... its own holidays and extra working days each calendar to indicate the change. Defined resources and activities can be connected to any calendar.
Control
Comparing actual performance with the process of control is Planned performance, analyzing the differences, and taking the appropriate Corrective action.
Control
Audit, comparing actual performance with planned performance, the difference necessary to examine and to take appropriate corrective action.
Critical Activity
A critical activity has zero or negative float. This activity has no allowance for work slippage. It must be finished on time or the whole project will fall behind schedule. (Non-critical Activities Has float or slack time and are not in the critical path. Super-critical Activities float has been negative.)
Critical Activity
Zero or negatir abundance (early-early start end = 0) is the activity. This activity will cause a delay of the offset project.
Calculate Schedule
The Critical Path Method (Calculate Schedule) is a modeling process that defines all the project's critical Activities which must be completed on time. The Calc tool bar button on the Gantt and PERT (found in most GUI-based PM software) windows calculates the start and finish dates of the two Passes of Activities in the project. The first pass calculates the start and early finish dates from the earliest start date forward. Activities The second pass calculates the late start and finish from the latest finish date backwards. The Difference Between the pairs of start and finish dates for each task is the float or slack time for the task (see FLOAT). Slack is the amount of time a task can be delayed without delaying the project completion date. A great advantage of this method is that the fine-tuning can be done to Accelerate the project. Various Activities Shorten critical path, then check the schedule to see how it is affected by the CDs. By experimenting in this manner, the optimal project schedule can be Determined.
When the calculation program
CPM (critical path method) - critical path method project's timely completion of all critical activities that define a modeling process. The start and end dates of project activities is calculated in two passes. In the first switch is calculated early start and early finish dates (forward-forward pass). The second transition, a late start and late finish dates of activities accounts (back right-backward pass). Ending dates of each activity, and since plenty of activity indicates that the difference between. As an example of an activity with plenty of +2, two days after the designated start date and end date for this project will not delay. Critical activities as described in the difference between ending and beginning with 0 activities are critical activities. This activity will create a delay in the effects of the project's end date.
Critical Path
Several paths may be there within one project. The critical path is the path (sequence) of the longest total time required to Represent Activities which complete the project. A delay in any activity in the critical path causes a delay in the completion of the project. There may be more than one critical path depending on durations and work flow logic.
Critical Path
May have multiple critical paths in a project. Critical path, needed for the completion of the project activity is the way of showing the long way. In any activity that will occur on the critical path delay will delay the completion of the project. Period and depending on the workflow logic can be more than one critical path.
Duration
Duration is the length of time needed to complete an activity. The time length can be Determined by user input or resource usage. Activities with no duration are called Milestones which act as markers (see Milestones). Activities is very difficult for future estimating durations. It is recommended that it Used to account for the largest possible duration Delays possible.
Period
The time required to complete an activity called the length of time. Length of time, with user input or resource use is determined. Period of time without or 0 (zero) is called the activities carried kilometers. Future is very difficult to estimate the duration of activity. Delays into account the widest possible use of time is recommended.
Early Finish
The Early Finish date is defined as the earliest calculated date on which an activity can end. It is based on the activity's Early Start which depends on the finish of the predecessor Activities and the activity's duration. (See EARLY START)
Early Completion
Will be calculated at the earliest termination date of an activity, "early finish" is defined as the early onset of the activity is based on the premise that it is based on the duration of activity and activity of the end. (See Early Start ...)
Early Start
The Early Start date is defined as the earliest calculated date on which an activity can begin. It is when all predecessor Activities Dependent on the finish.
Early Start
Calculated at the earliest date an activity can begin, "early start" is defined as. Bit depends on all of the predecessor activity.
Finishing Activity
A finishing the last activity is activity that must be completed before a project can be finished Considered. This activity is not a predecessor to any other activity - it has no successors.
End Activity
Completed projects will be completed well before the most recent activity. This activity is not a precursor to any other activity and has no successor.
Float
Float is the amount of time that an activity can slip past its duration without delaying the rest of the project. The calculation depends on the type float. See Positive FLOAT, FLOAT and Negative. All float is calculated when a project has its schedule computed.
Abundance
Abundance, without affecting the rest of the project activity is the amount of time ... may be beyond the initial term of the calculation depends on the type of abundance.
Free Float
Free float is the excess time available before the start of the Following activity, assuming that both Activities start on their early start date. Free float is calculated in the Following Way: FREE FLOAT = earliest START OF Following ACTIVITY - earliest START OF PRESENT ACTIVITY - DURATION OF PRESENT ACTIVITY On the activity's calendar, free float is the length Of time from the end of the activity to the earliest Early among all of its successors from the start date. If the activity has no successors, used Here is the project finish date. Since free float is Meaningless for hammocks, it is set to zero. For the common case where all lags are finish-to-start lags of zero, the free float represents the number of work days that an activity can be delayed before it affects any other activity in the project.
Example: The current activity has an Early Start of March 1st and a duration of three days. The succeeding activity has an Early Start of March 7th. Assuming everyday is a work day, then: FREE FLOAT = March 7 - March 1-3 days = 6 days - 3 days = 3 days free float can be thought of as the amount of time an activity can not expand without affecting the Following activity. Longer activity takes to complete than if the current free float and its projected duration combined, will be unable to begin the activity by Following its earliest start date.
Free float
Coming after him (the successor) does not affect the activity end date, start time is the amount that may be beyond those activities. To calculate the free float,
Consecutive free-float = Early Start Date of the activity - that activity Early Start Date - Duration of O Activity
Gantt Chart
A Gantt chart is a graphic display of activity durations. It is also referred to as a bar chart. Activities are listed with other tabular information on the left side with time intervals over the bars. Activity durations are Shown in the form of horizontal bars.
Gantt Chart
Gantt chart is a graphical representation of the activity period. Also referred to as a bar chart.
Hammocks
A hammock groups Activities, milestones, or other hammocks together for Reporting. A hammock's milestone number ranges from 99 to 95 This allows for summation of five levels. For example, two hammocks at the 1995 level 1996 level can be combined in a hammock. Any number of hammocks are allowed within the five levels for a project. Most PM software calculates the duration of a hammock from the early and late dates of which it is linked to the Activities.
Hammock
A hammock, activities, milestones or other groups to report a hammock. Milestone in a hammock between the numbers 95 and 99. This allows you to pick up five levels. For example, two hammocks in the 1995 level, 96 level can be combined in a hammock.
Histogram
A histogram is a graphic display of resource usage over a period of time. It allows the detection of overused or underused resources. The resource usage in the business DISPLAYED colored vertical bars.
The ideal level for a resource on the screen is indicated by another color (typically red). Produced by the vertical height is the maximum usage of the value field of the Specified Resource Label window. (The printed histogram uses a horizontal line to display the maximum usage set in the Resource Label window.) If the resource bar extends beyond the red area for any given day, resources need to be leveled (or spread out) for proper allocation. Should be checked after the resource histograms resources are assigned to the project Activities.
Histogram
Resource use within a specific time period is shown graphically. Resource utilization are shown with vertical colored bars. More or less used to determine the source of this graphic representation is possible.
Lag
Between the lag is the time delay of the start or finish an activity and the start or finish of its successor (s). See FINISH-TO-FINISH LAG, LAG FINISH-TO-START, and START-TO-START LAG.
Waiting Period
Beginning or end of an activity and its successor activity is the time lag between the start or end. As an example, the ground floor of a building after the foundation laid for the start of work is necessary to wait for 15 days to dry. That 15-day period of "lag" is called.
Late Finish
Late Finish dates are defined as the latest dates by which an activity can finish to avoid Causing Delays in the project ..
Late Completion
Without causing delays in a project activity will be completed on the latest definitions. As noted in the calculation when the program dates back to the late finish with transitions (backward pass) is calculated.
Late Start
Late Start dates are defined as an activity can start the latest dates by which to avoid Causing Delays in the project. Many PM software packages calculate late dates with a backward pass from the beginning to the end of the project.
Late Start
Without causing delays in a project start date to the latest definitions of an activity. As noted in the calculation when the program dates back to the late finish with transitions (backward pass) is calculated.
Milestones
A milestone is an activity with zero duration (Usually marking the end of a period).
Milestones
Milestone is called the zero-term activities .. In general, a stage / phase indicates completion.
Negative Float
Activities indicates negative float their predecessors must finish before the start in order to meet a Target Finish date. All float is calculated when a project has its schedule computed. Negative float occurs when the Difference Between the dates in the early and late dates (start or finish) of an activity are negative. In this situation, the late dates are earlier than the early dates. This can happen when Constraints (Activity Target dates or a Project Target Finish date) are added to a project.
Negative float
Negative slack, to capture the targeted date, activity should begin before the end of the precursors shows. Negative float, with the earliest date for late dates (start or finish) the difference between a "negative (-)" came out occurs. This case, some constraints (the project's targeted completion date or duration of activity) is added to the project may occur.
Network Analysis
Network analysis is the process of identifying early and late start and finish dates for project Activities. This is done with a forward and backward pass through the project.
Network Analysis
Network Analysis of project activities early / late - start / end dates of the process. With this forward and backward transitions (forward and backward pass) is performed.
Network Diagram
A network diagram is a graphic representation of activity sequence and relationships. Activity boxes are connected together with google analytics precedence to one-way arrows. Placed on the left side of the first activity is the last activity with the diagram on the right side.

The first activity in the left diagram, the most recent activity is located at the far right of the diagram.
Parallel Activities
Activities Activities are two or more parallel than can be done at the Same Time. This allows a project to be completed faster than if the Activities were arranged serially in a straight line.
Parallel Activities
Parallel activities, will take place at the same time means two or more activities. This project, listed as a series of activities will allow much faster completion.
Path
A path is a connected series of Activities. CRITICAL PATH METHOD Refer to for information on critical and non-critical paths.
Way
Way, is a series of interconnected activities. Critical Path Method to have a look ..
Positive Float
Positive float is defined as the amount of time that an activity's start can be delayed without affecting the project completion date. Float is an activity with positive note on the critical path and is called a non-critical activity. The Difference Between early and late dates (start or finish) determines the amount of float.
Positive FLOAT
Float up, an activity-without affecting the project completion date is the amount of-onset is sometimes delayed. An activity with plenty of positive and not on the critical path activities are referred to as non krirtik. Early and late dates (start or finish) determines the difference between the amount of slack.
Predecessor
An activity that must be completed (or be partially completed) before a Specified activity can begin is called a predecessor. The combination of all predecessors and successors (see SUCCESSOR) relationships among Activities of the project forms a network. This network can be analyzed to determine the critical path scheduling and other project Implications.
Premise
That must be completed before a particular activity (or part completed), an activity, "premise" is called. Predecessor and successor relationships between project activities of all the "network" forms.
Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT)
PERT is a project management technique for determining how much time a project needs before it is completed. Each activity is assigned a best, worst, and most reserve, mining estimate completion time. These estimates are Used to determine the average completion time. Used Here are the average times to figure the critical path and the standard deviation of completion times for the entire project.
Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT)
How long before the completion of a project to determine the need for a project that is yöentimi techniques. Best for each aktvitie (EI), worst (EK) and possible (O) is determined by completion time estimates. These estimates of average completion times (OTZ) is used to find.
OTZ = (EI + 4xO + EK) / 6
Standard Deviation = (EK-EI) / 6
Project
A project undertaken to create a unique product is a temporary Endeavor, service or result.
Project
With a specific starting and ending date, eşssiz a product, service or a temporary effort is producing results.
Resource
A resource is assigned to an activity or anything that is needed to complete an activity. This may include equipment, people, buildings, etc.
Source
Resources, completion of an activity is assigned to anything. This source is a device may be human or material ...
Resource Leveling
Schedules Provides the Capability to adjust project resource leveling in order to minimize the peaks in the daily resource usages. Usually this is done when resources are over-allocated. Activities are moved within their available float to produce a new schedule.
Balancing resources
Daily consumption of resources over the adjustment to balance the calendar provides project. Installation is made more often these resources occurs. If there is plenty of that activity, in which case he recovered from overloaded resources to be assigned to a later date activities, additional activities can be assigned to a resource.
Scheduling
Scheduling is the process of determining when project Activities Activities will take place depending on defined durations and précédent.
When programming
When programming, and preliminary activities for the project activities will take place according to the time setting process.
Sequence
Sequence is the order in which Activities will occur with respect to one another. Activities Between this establishes the priority and dependencies. Successor and predecessor relationships are Developed in a network format. Visualize this allows the work flow to those involved in the project.
Ordering
Sorting, to perform an activity while the other is based on an activity. Sorting the dependencies between activities and priorities to the middle and the premise koyar.Ardıl networking format to improve relations. This clearly ensures the workflow.
Starting Activity
A starting activity has no predecessors. Does it has to shout to wait for any other activity START.
Startup Activity
Since there is no precursor activity. Beklemeşi no need to get started is an activity other.
Subproject
A subproject is a distinct group of Activities that comprise their own project which in turn is a part of a larger project. Subprojects are summarized into a single activity to hide the detail.
Sub-projects
A large part of the project as a separate activity by itself is a group project. To hide details of sub-projects can be grouped in a single activity.
Successor
A successor is an activity whose start or finish depends on the start or finish of a predecessor activity. Refer to related information for PREDECESSOR.
Sequential
Sequence, the start or finish of predecessor activities are activities that are connected to the start or end. Refer to the premise ...
Total Float
Total float is the excess time available for an activity to be expanded or delayed without affecting the rest of the project - assuming it begins at its earliest time. It is calculated Using the Following Formula: TOTAL FINISH FLOAT = latest - earliest START - DURATION
Total Float
Projects will not delay the due date of an activity since the amount of the delay is sometimes called.
Total Float = Late Finish - Early Start - Time
Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)
Defining the WBS is a tool for the hierarchical breakdown of work and responsibilities of a project. Highest level of education is Developed by identifying the work in the project. These major categories are broken down into smaller components.
The Subdivision continues until the lowest level of detail required Established business. These end units of the WBS become the Activities of a project. Implemented before, at the WBS Reporting summary facilitates a variety of levels.
Business Separation / Refraction Structure
WBS, a project of the work and responsibilities as a hierarchical details. The highest level jobs in a project (s) will be developed with identification. This major business categories are divided into smaller pieces. Can be controlled to divide into smaller pieces and continue until the desired detail is reached. To the lowest level of this unit "activity" is called.
Work Flow
Work flow is the relationship of the Activities of a project from start to finish. Activity takes into consideration all types of relationships work flow.
Workflow
Until the beginning of the end of a project which is called a workflow activity relationships.
Work Load
Work load is the amount of work units assigned to a resource over a period of time.
Workload
Workload, in a certain period of time is the amount of work units assigned to a resource.
Units work
Resources is the measurement of work units. For example, people as a resource can be measured by the number of hours they work.
Business Units
Business units, is a measure of resources. As an example, people can be measured according to working hours and working days.
Zero Float
Zero float is a condition where there is no excess time Activities Between. Considered a critical activity is an activity with zero float. Increased the duration of any critical activity is if (the activity slips), the project finish date will slip.
Zero Float
Between activities is the absence of more time. An activity with zero slack is critical activities. Completion of critical activities take longer than planned if the project completion time is delayed.
Late Start - Early Start = 0
