Abstract The concept of a Critical Path Scheduling Tableau is introduced
as an integrating tool for solving industrial engineering problems
involving the application of transitive graphs.
The Tableau is a combination of a precedence matrix and a
boundary time table which may be used to construct graphical representations
for critical path scheduling such as: an arrow network,
a bar chart, a time chart, and a manpower diagram. It can further
serve as means, without other graphical aid, to find all critical paths
of a project, to assist in allocating equipment, and to study the effect
of manpower leveling.
The dual network concept is developed and the construction of
a dual circuit for a time chart is described. Finally, it is shown
how a combination of a C.P.S. Tableau, time chart, and its dual
network may lead to the construction of the time-cost curve for the project. The optimum schedule can be found for least cost, and a
time chart may be provided for either an optimum or a given completion
date.
