Q.1
Does PERT stand for Program Evaluation Review Technique?
Yes
No
Q.2
Which of the following is an advantage of pert and cpm?
straightforward concept
not mathematically complex
It does not handle the scheduling of resource allocation
Both straightforward concept & not mathematically complex
Q.3
Which of the following is a limitation of pert and cpm?
They can be used only to monitor schedules
There is the inherent danger of placing too much emphasis on the critical path.
They are applicable to only a narrow variety of projects and industries
The graphical nature of a network delays comprehension of the activity list's interrelatiomships
Q.4
Which of the following is not a primary form of agile methodology?
RUP
RAD
SDLC
SCRUM
Q.5
The main difference between pert and cpm is that ...........
Critical path is determined in PERT only
PERT deals with events and CPM with activities
Costs are considered on CPM only and not in PERT
Guessed times are used in PERT and evaluated times in CPM
Q.6
With respect to pert and cpm, slack ...............
marks the start or completion of a task.
is a task or subproject that must be completed.
is the latest time an activity can be started without delaying the entire project.
is the amount of time a task may be delayed without changing the overall project completion time.
Q.7
Which of the following statements regarding critical paths is true?
Every network has only one critical path.
Some activities on the critical path may have slack.
The shortest of all paths through the network is the critical path.
On a specific project, there can be multiple critical paths, all with exactly the same duration.
Q.8
Which of the following statements regarding pert times is true?
The probable time estimate is calculated as t = (a + 4m + b)/6.
Optimistic time estimate is an estimate of the maximum time an activity will require.
Optimistic time estimate is an estimate of the minimum time an activity will require.
None of the above
Q.9
Which of the following statements regarding cpm networks is true?
Prioritizes tasks
Allows you to compare the planned and the actual progress.
Helps the team stay focused on the main thing.
All of the above
Q.10
Which of the following statements regarding pert analysis is true?
Each activity has three estimates of its duration.
Only critical activities contribute to the project variance.
Project variance is the sum of all critical activity variances.
The most likely time is different from the expected activity time.
Q.11
The earliest start time rule
Directs when a project can start
Regulates when a project must begin
Compares the activities end time for an activity predecessor
Compares the activities starting time for an activity successor
Q.12
CPM was developed in which country?
Japan
China
USA
Russia
Q.13
Slack time in PERT analysis
Can never be less than zero
Is minimum for critical events
Can never be less than zero
Can never be greater than zero
Q.14
Which of the following statements regarding gantt charts is true?
Gantt charts are expensive
Gantt charts give a timeline and precedence relationships for each activity of a project
Gantt charts are visual devices that show the duration of activities in a project.
None of the above
Q.15
PERT analysis is based upon
Optimistic time
Most likely time
Pessimistic time
All of the above
Q.16
Which of the following is not true regarding pert and cpm?
PERT and CPM are useful in monitoring costs.
Time estimates are subject to fudging by managers.
Managers only need to closely monitor the critical path.
PERT and CPM are useful when controlling large projects.
Q.17
What does PERT analysis based on?
Most likely time
Optimistic time
Pessimistic time
All of the above
Q.18
Who introduced bar chart in CPM?
Jane Gantt
Henry Gantt
Williams henry
Joseph henry
Q.19
What is difference between PERT and CPM?
PERT is a probabilistic model while CPM is a deterministic model
PERT is an event-oriented technique while CPM is an activity-oriented technique
PERT is Project Evaluation and Review Technique while CPM is Critical Path Method
All of the above
Q.20
PERT technique of network analysis is mainly useful for
Small projects
Deterministic activities
Large and complex projects
Research and development projects
