DİPLOMATİK YAZIŞMA VE PROTOKOL - Deneme Sınavı - 10

The work package typically forms the lowest level in the WBS. Although some projects may employ the term subtask, the majority leave work package–level activities as the most basic WBS step.

A work package may include several milestones. A milestone is defined as a significant event in the project. Depending on the size and complexity of a project work package, it may contain a number of significant checkpoints or milestones that determine its progress toward completion.

In projects, start time is generally zero (computations can be done according to the calendar later).

Dummy activities are performed when one tries to define a logical dependency although the activities are not on the same path; one activity cannot begin after the other one is accomplished.

Project objective: In order to satisfy customer requirements, the total objective of the project needs to be defined at the first step. The project objective gives answers to the “what, when and how much” questions.

In order to develop project networks, there are two approaches that can be used: activity-on-node (AON) and activity-on-arrow (AOA) methods

Burst activity: This activity has more than one activity immediately following it (more than one dependency arrow flowing from it). Figure 2.5.b. shows that activities Y and Z cannot begin until activity X is completed. This figure also indicates that activities Y and Z can occur concurrently or simultaneously if the project manager wishes; however, it is not a necessary condition. For example, activity X can take place while activity Z is being accomplished, but activity X must be completed before activities Y and Z can start. Activities Y and Z are considered parallel activities. Activity X is referred to a burst activity because more than one arrow bursts from the node.

It should be An activity with a start and end date

there shoul be spesific time

Routing manufacture of some yacht  models is example of ordinary work

It should be scope

Reviews with owners is not included

A network commonly flows from left to right

Stable activities not one of them

ıt should be path

All of these developments and events emerged from the management of process. As in the first chapter of this textbook explains; the definition of a project includes:

The answer is E.

What is not a Project? A project is not related with every day’s routine and repetitive/ordinary work. While the routine work, often called Business As Usual (BAU), occurs/repeats in cycles, a project is performed just once, and when the desired result is reached, the project ends. The answer is A.

The first one is the initiation/ defining phase, where the objectives and goals of the project are defined, tasks and resources are allocated, and budget & time constraints are established, and lastly the limitations of the project are identified. The answer is B.

Milestone: A significant point or event in the project. A milestone is a point with zero duration that indicates a cumulative sequence of events while performing the project. It also symbolizes an important achievement in a project. Because beginning and finish date of a milestone is highly related to a task’s beginning and finish date, task association is the major characteristic of a milestone. For example, coding complete and finished by May 1 of the same year. The answer is A.

Each subdeliverable requires work packages that will be completed by an assigned organizational unit. The lowest level of the WBS is called a work package. Work packages are short-duration tasks that have a definite start and stop point, consume resources, and represent cost. Each work package is a control point. A work package manager is responsible for seeing that the package is completed on time, within budget, and according to the technical specifications. The answer is D.
