A New Lower Bound for Completion Time Distribution Function of Stochastic PERT Networks
In this paper, a new method for developing a lower bound on exact completion time distribution function of stochastic PERT networks is provided that is based on simplifying the structure of this type of network. The designed mechanism simplifies network structure by arc duplication so that network distribution function can be calculated only with convolution and multiplication. The selection of...

متن کاملA New Approach to Approximate Completion Time Distribution Function of Stochastic Pert Networks
The classical PERT approach uses the path with the largest expected duration as the critical path to estimate the probability of completing a network by a given deadline. However, in general, such a path is not the most critical path (MCP) and does not have the smallest estimate for the probability of completion time. The main idea of this paper is derived from the domination structure between ...
متن کاملFuzzy completion time for alternative stochastic networks
In this paper a network comprising alternative branching nodes with probabilistic outcomes is considered. In other words, network nodes are probabilistic with exclusive-or receiver and exclusive-or emitter. First, an analytical approach is proposed to simplify the structure of network. Then, it is assumed that the duration of activities is positive trapezoidal fuzzy number (TFN). This paper com...
متن کاملA Study of Approximating the Moments of the Job Completion Time in PERT Networks
Executive Summary The importance of proper management of projects has not gone unrecognized in industry and academia. Consequently, tools like the Critical Path Method (CPM) and the Program Evaluation Review Technique (PERT) for project planning have been the focus of attention of both practitioners and researchers. Determination of the T ime to C omplete the J ob (TCJ) in PERT networks is impo...
