                               to estimate task time, where:



                               to = Optimistic time estimate
                               to = Most likely time estimate
                               to = Pessimistic time estimate




                            Determine the precedence relationships between the tasks, that is, indicate which
                            tasks depend on the completion of other tasks in the process.


                            Draw the network diagram.



                            Compute early start and early finish times by working from left to right in the

                            network. These are the earliest times that individual tasks can be started and
                            finished.



                            Compute late start and late finish times by moving from right to left in the network.
                            These times are the latest times that tasks can possibly be started or finished.



                            Compute slack times and determine the critical path. The critical path links
                            activities with zero slack.

                                              lack time = Late start – Early start
