Discuss about SCHEDULING
Scheduling the project tasks is an important project planning activity.
In order to schedule the project activities, a software project manager needs to do the following:
1. Identify all the major activities that need to be carried out to complete the project.
2. Break down each activity into tasks.
3. Determine the dependency among different tasks.
4. Establish the estimates for the time durations necessary to complete the tasks.
5. Represent the information in the form of an activity network.
6. Determine task starting and ending dates from the information represented in the activity network.
7. Determine the critical path. A critical path is a chain of tasks that determines the duration of the project.
8. Allocate resources to tasks.
The first step in scheduling a software project involves identifying all the activities necessary to complete the project. A good knowledge of the intricacies of the project and the development process helps the managers to effectively identify the important activities of the project. Next, the activities are broken down into a logical set of smaller activities (sub activities). The smallest sub activities are called tasks which are assigned to different developers. The smallest unit of work activities that are subject to management planning and control are called tasks.
