Abstract

The Critical Path Method is a technique for planning and scheduling projects. A schedule shows (1) how long a project will take to complete, (2) which activities, of the network constituting the project, are 'critical' in defining the time-length of the project, (3) when each activity can be started, and (4) the tolerance allowed in the startime of each activity. The Method is described, and also a computer program, Pegacrit (4) written by Ferranti Ltd., which applies it to projects.
