You have been made project coordinator for an upcoming tourism workshop to be held in the island of Anguilla. Local, regional and international participants will be in attendance. You have invited 25 participants and 12 presenters as part of your planning. In addition, there are several other tasks to be performed: i. Letters of invitation are to be sent with relevant information. ii. Overall estimates for workshop funding need to be calculated. iii. During the workshop, all attendees and equipment requests will be documented for reporting purposes and also to be used for future analysis when compared with other possible workshops. iv. Final reports will be written to document those persons who attended the workshop as well as to compare the pre- and post-funding estimates. v. Extra expenses incurred at the workshop are also to be noted. vi. A brief presentation highlighting various aspects of Anguilla’s culture and island is to be made to all participants at the beginning of the…
1. Draw an Activity-On-Arrow (AOA) network diagram representing the project. Put the node numbers in circles and draw arrows from node to node, labelling each arrow with the activity letter and estimated duration. 2. Identify all the paths on the network diagram and note how long they are. 3. What is the critical path for this project and how long is it? 4. What is the shortest possible time needed to complete the project?
Suppose you are the project manager for the following project: First,draw a network diagram for the project. Determine the critical path andslack times for all of the tasks. This completes your plan for the projectschedule. During project execution, you become aware of the need tochange the duration of Task 4 to five days.Meanwhile, Task 3 has been finished one day early, so it only took one day to do. What, ifany, effects do these changes have on your project? What would have happened if you had notbeen monitoring the status of the project?
For the information shown in table below, 1- Draw the network diagram by using AOA method to estimate the project time and prepare a table containing ES, EF, LS, LF, TF, FF, and critical path. 2- Allocate the resources required to complete the project on earliest and latest start time and then identify the most reasonable of them, and why?

For the following activities, draw the network diagram and by using forward and backward pass, determine:-1. Project duration.2. Critical path.
Draw the network diagram, perform forward and backward calculation, and complete the table. Identify the critical path, and calculate Total and Free Float.

Consider the following Project Schedule. i) Identify all the Paths and calculate their duration? ( In your Submission DO NOT submit Network diagram , write down only the paths). ii) Compute the critical paths duration and state the path.
