Task and Resource Scheduling

Complete Chapter 8, Exercise 1, on page 280 of Project Management: The Managerial Process, using Microsoft^® Project 2013.

Create a network schedule using the information provided in the exercise, apply resources, and adjust the schedule to eliminate over commitment of resources.

Given the network plan that follows, compute the early, late, and slack times. What is the project duration? Using any approach you wish (e.g., trial and error), develop a loading chart for resources, Electrical Engineers (EE), and resource, Mechanical Engineers (ME). Assume only one of each resource exists. Given your resource schedule, compute the early, late, and slack times for your project. Which activities are now critical? What is the project duration now? Could something like this happen in real projects?
