Schedule Your Wedding This is an open-ended case study, please use your creativity in completing all the problems on this case study. You Could use any support software (such as MS Excel) for this case study. Consider planning and scheduling your Wedding as a project, and answer the following questions: a. Develop a work breakdown structure for your wedding. You can refer the format in slide 19 of Chapter 5 PPT. Be clear of each level of the structure (task=subtaskwork package). Work Breakdown Structure Example: Large Optical Scanner Design Level Exhibit 5.3 Overview 1 Optical simulator design Optical design 1.1.1 Telescope design/fab 1.1.2 Telescope/Simulator optical interface 1.1.3 Simulator zoom system design 1.1.4 Ancillary simulator optical component specification 1.2 System performance analysis 1.2.1 Overall system firmware and software control 1.2.1.1 Logic flow diagram generation and analysis 1.2.1.2 Basic control algorithm design 1.2.2 Far beam analyzer 1.2.3 System inter- and intra-alignment method design 1.2.4 Data recording and reduction requirements System integration Cost analysis 1.4.1 Cosu/system schedule analysis 1.4.2 Cost/system performance analysis 1.5 Management 1.5.1 System design/engineering management 1.5.2 Program management 1.6 Long lead item procurement 1.6.1 Large optics 1.6.2 Target components 1.6.3 Detectors Details 5-19 b. Suppose today is Jan 1s" and the wedding will be hold on June 30th. Make a list of the specific activities that need to be done between Jan 1st and June 30th by following the Work Breakdown Structure (create a table which is categorized by activity, designation, immediate predecessor and duration) Example: Activity Designation Immediate Predecessor None Time (weeks) 1 A B A 2 Select a company Obtain annual report and perform a ratio analysis Collect technical stock price data and construct charts Review data and make decisions 1 D B and C 1 c. Create a network diagram that shows the sequence and dependent relationships of all the activities (you can use the World build-in tools to draw the diagram or scan your hand drawing picture as an attachment). d. Using a project start time of 0 (or January 1) and a required project completion time of 180 days (or June 30), calculate the ES, EF, LS, and LF times and total slack for each activity. If your calculations result in a project schedule with negative total slack, revise the project scope, activity estimated durations, and/or sequence or dependent relationships among activities to arrive at an acceptable baseline schedule for completing the project within 180 days (or by June 30). Describe the revisions you made. e. Determine the critical path and identify the activities that make up the critical path.
