minimum amount of time (work day has 8 hours)?                                                           You can assume that all the tasks are independent and all engineers who work on the tasks have basically the same skills but you can assign one task to one engineer – 5 engineers for 3 days

What is the number of engineers you would need to assign to this project to deliver this project in the minimum amount of time (work day has 8 hours)?

- 6 engineers for 2.5 days

When considering making the schedule for a project, which of the following items is critical to know: -

All of the given

Which one of the above risk areas must be done well on a project and why? – All areas

Which sequence is the correct to testing structure (organization)? – Unit test -> Functional Test -> Component Test -> Regression Test

While measuring the CV(Cost Variance) we will get the Negative value, what does it mean? – We have over planned cost

While measuring the SV(Schedule Variance) we will get the Negative value, what does it mean? –

Behind Schedule

While measuring the SV(schedule variance) we will get the Neutral value, what does it mean? – On schedule

While measuring the SV(schedule variance) we will get the Positive value, what does it mean? – Ahead of schedule

2. If you have a work package consisting of the following tasks: A, B, C, D, E, F

And for each task, you do know the most likely, optimistic and pessimistic times to completion.

Using the PERT estimation technique calculate the estimated duration of the work package. A (T0=2, Tm=4, Tp=9)                         Predecessor: -

B (T0=5, Tm=8, Tp=14)        Predecessor: A C (T0=4, Tm=10, Tp=13)                     Predecessor: B D (T0=4, Tm=7, Tp=10)                       Predecessor: B

E (T0=11, Tm=14, Tp=20)  Predecessor: C, D F (T0=9, Tm=13, Tp=16)                     Predecessor: E

 

a. ~45.8

b. ~49.83

c. ~47.5

d. ~52
