PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Project Management is often described as an optimization of these three project properties
What is time, cost, and quality
This is the graphical representation of the values of two objective functions at the extreme points of a feasible region.
What is objective space?
The inequality of a constraint can be removed by introducing this.
What is a slack variable?
This is the answer to the question: "What is the quality of the Linear Program result."
What is sensitivity analysis?
This Russian Empress is famous for dying while f**king a horse.
Who is Cathrine the Great
The longest duration path in a project schedule that also determines the shortest possible project time.
What is the critical path?
This example was used in almost every linear programming lecture, despite getting old after only the second one.
What is the concrete example?
This is a three word description of all feasible regions.
What is convex, compact, and continuous
These are the types of solutions possible for a Linear Programming problem
What are Unique, Infeasible, Alternate Optima, and Unbounded?
This is the first name of Batman's love interest in the 2008 classic The Dark Knight.
Who is Rachel?
Resource Leveling does this to project time and keeps resources be that?
What is increases and unlimited
Developed by a fascist madman, this property is used in many different fields for determining a set of non-inferior solutions.
What is the Pareto Optimal?
The property of a optimization model where a solution implies probabilistic variability of the output?
What is stochastic?
What is Right Hand Side?
This great conqueror died unceremoniously of a nosebleed on his wedding night.
Who is Attila the Hun?
This is an activity relationship where a second activity must start a number of days after a first finishes.
What is a finish-to-start with delay relationship?
This method of solving LP problems involves finding an initial solution, then moving to improved adjacent feasible solutions until no further improvement can be made.
What is the simplex algorithm?
This is the equation for a Single Moment check when leveling resources.
What is ∑(resource demand)2
By adjusting a single coefficient on a function to be maximized, in order to determine the stability of its optimal point, you are performing this.
What is Objective Function Sensitivity Analysis?

Multi-objective Programming falls into this category of optimization problem.
What is Deterministic and Prescriptive?
This is the maximum of Z=400x1 + 200x2, subject to
18x1 +3x2 <=800,
9x1 + 4x2 <= 600,
x2<= 150, and
x1,x2 >= 0
