While working with your team members on activity sequencing, a team member identifies that even though a series of activities are planned to be completed in a specific sequence, they can be performed in parallel. What type of activity sequencing method may be utilized in this situation?

Which one of the following analysis methods usually uses Monte Carlo simulation to simulate the outcome of a project by making use of three-point estimates (Optimistic, Pessimistic, Most Likely) for each activity, a huge number of simulated scheduling possibilities, or a few selected scenarios that are most likely, and the network diagram

While reviewing your project resource histogram, you notice several peaks and valleys, as resources are not evenly distributed in your project. In order to evenly utilize resources as much as possible, you decide to move some activities from the week when you are using a lot of resources to the week when you are hardly using any. Which technique are you using in this case?

You are the project manager overseeing the implementation of a new computer infrastructure at the local hospital. Your sponsor has informed you that all the existing applications must work in the new infrastructure, and the project should be completed in three months. These are examples of:

A project manager is managing a web-based application project to automate the accounting processes of his organization. The project has an estimated budget of $120,000 and a duration of nine months. While reviewing the project, the project manager notices that activities were scheduled in sequential order but coding work was initiated twelve days earlier than planned. What type of relationship represents the start of the coding work to the completion of the design work?

Steve is the project manager for a construction project to convert an old nursing home into a new multistory office complex. The architectural design and site surveys are completed, and Steve is now waiting for the clearance and permit from the city to start the construction. This is an example of which kind of dependency?

Your IT project has ten team members, and recently you have hired three more database developers. You are using a time- phased graphical display of activity start dates, end dates, and durations for tracking progress and reporting to the team. Which chart are you using?

Steve has just been assigned as a project manager for a newly approved software development project. The sponsor is interested in knowing a high-level estimation on the total duration of the project and asks Steve to send him the information by the end of the day. What kind of estimate should Steve use in this kind of situation?

You have recently been assigned as a program manager to implement an ERP solution in your organization. Initially, the team will only work on five key modules in the first phase of the project. The second phase of the project has not been approved yet. You have estimated that three of the modules will take ten days each, and the remaining two will be completed in fifteen days each. It is not possible to work on these modules in parallel. What would be the approximate duration for the first phase of your project?

Which of the following is FALSE about analogous estimating?

You recently took over a project from another project manager. While reviewing the network diagram, you find that there are four critical paths and three near-critical paths. What can you conclude about the project?

You are overseeing a project to implement a web-based traffic monitoring system. You have requested three programmers, three database developers, and two testers; senior management only approved five team members for your project. Which one of the following may you use to produce a resource-limited schedule by letting the schedule slip and cost increase in order to deal with a limited amount of resources, resource availability, and other resource constraints?

Your IT project is progressing well and is on schedule when a vendor sends you an e-mail stating that the equipment delivery will be delayed by a week due to severe snow storm on the East Coast. Which of the documents would best capture the impact of the delay on the project schedule?

Which one of the following takes the progressive elaboration approach and plans the work in the near term in detail and future work in a higher level?
