Table1
- Draw a network diagram using Ms. Project Management or Project liber for this project showing on the diagram the duration of each activity, predecessor, the earliest start, earliest finish, latest start, and latest finish dates, the free float, and the total float.
- What is the expected total duration of the project?1840
- What is the critical path? Display the critical path only in red color using the S/W.
The critical path is the longest sequence of tasks that must be completed to successfully conclude a project, from start to finish.
- Insert the following human resources needed to implement the project as shown in table2.
