What is the Monitor & Control

 Phase.

Includes details of project stakeholders (no sensitive info)

What is the Stakeholder Registry
400

-a hierarchical description of a project into more and more detailed components.

-defines the project by dividing it into its major subcomponents (or tasks), which are then subdivided into more detailed components, and finally into a set of activities and their related costs.

What is a Work Breakdown Structure



400

A simple CPM network has three activities,A, B, andC. A is an immediate predecessor of Band of C. B is an immediate predecessor of C. The activity durations areA=4,B=3,C=8

The critical path is A-B-C, duration 15
