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. |
