Question

g) Comparing to a multiple-server system with multiple lines, a pooled (single-line) system improve the waiting performance by A. Improving service capacity B. Reduce arrival variability C. Reduce service variability D. Reduce arrival rate h) The critical path in a project is the sequence of activities that ANSWER:_ A. Has the shortest time. B. Has the smallest number of activities. C. has the minimum budget. D. None of these statements are correct. i) Which of the following statements is correct respect to slack time? ANSWER:. A. The slack time of an activity is the latest start time (LST) of the activity minus the earliest start time (EST) The slack time is always zero for an activity on the critical path. The slack time of an activity determines by how much an activity can be delayed without impacting the overall completion of the project. B. C. D. All of the above. are commonly used to visualize theANSWER: _' A. Gantt charts, resource utilization B. Gantt charts, project time lines C. Flow charts, resource utilization D. Flow charts, project time lines

Explanation / Answer

(g) It improves service capacity as the line remains unaffected in case of process disruption at one server with pooled lines, whereas in multiple server multiple lines, the process is affected if any one of the server is affected.

A is correct.

(h) None of the statements are correct because the critical path has the longest duration of activities.It does not have necessarily lowest budget.

D is correct

(i) All statements are correct

D is correct

(j) Gantt chart are used to visualise the project timelines

B is correct.
