ENGR-502 Mod 12

ENGR-502 Exam II

QuestionAnswer
In a resource constrained project, the work must be finished by a certain time, or date, as efficiently as possible. False
There is, for almost all projects, usually a dominant constraint that serves as the final arbiter of project decisions. True
The best method for establishing the existence of resource conflicts across project activities uses resource-loading charts. True
The idea behind resource leveling is to avoid huge swings in utilization of labor and equipment. True
Because resource management is typically a multivariate, combinatorial problem (i.e., one that is characterized by multiple solutions involving literally dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of activity variables) truly correct answers are not possible. False
A resource loading table is created through identifying the project activities and the resources required for completion and applying this information to the project schedule baseline. True
Resource loading charts are used to display the amount of resources required as a function of time on a graph. True
If an activity can be split, only the functional portion of the original activity needs to be accomplished for the project to be fully completed. False
The problem of resource underutilization that a project manager faces when managing a single project disappears in the multi-project environment. False
In-process inventory represents the amount of work waiting to be completed but delayed due to unavailable resources. True
A project that must be finished by December 31st is: time-constrained
The 1Shovel Construction Company is hired by Edmond to lay sewer pipe from the east end of town to the west end of town. The crew would like to begin at both ends simultaneously and have a ceremony when both ends meet, they have a: resource constraint
The best method for establishing the existence of resource conflicts across project activities uses: resource loading charts
A resource loading form is also known as a(n): resource usage calendar.
A resource loading form can be generated once you have developed: the activity network and the work breakdown structure.
Which of the following would NOT typically be displayed in a resource loading table? the expenses allocated to the activities
A resource loading chart displays: the amount of resources required as a function of time.
Splitting activities refers to: starting an activity, interrupting it to use a resource elsewhere, and then returning to work on the activity.
The amount of work waiting to be completed but delayed due to unavailable resources is known as: in-process inventory.
Mathematical programming is sometimes used to generate optimal solutions to resource constrained problems in a multi-project setting but suffers from: problem complexity.
