Slide 5November 5-6, 2009 Copyright © 2009 PMI RiskSIG Project Scheduling Under uncertainty u (CPM) u PERT u Simulation u Critical chain
6
Slide 6November 5-6, 2009 Copyright © 2009 PMI RiskSIG What is missing? u Causality in project uncertainty u Estimation and Subjectivity u Unknown Risks (Common cause factors) u Trade-off between time, cost and performance u Dynamic Learning
7
Slide 7November 5-6, 2009 Copyright © 2009 PMI RiskSIG Bayesian Networks (BNs) u Graphical model âNodes (variables) âArcs (causality) u Probabilistic (Bayesian) inference

Slide 9November 5-6, 2009 Copyright © 2009 PMI RiskSIG Bayes’ Theorem u ‘A’ represents hypothesis and ‘B’ represents evidence. u P(A) is called ‘prior distribution’. u P(B/A) is called ’Likelihood function’. u P(A/B) is called ’Posterior distribution’.

Slide 11November 5-6, 2009 Copyright © 2009 PMI RiskSIG Inference in BN (cause to effect) With no other information P(Delay)=0.14.4 Knowing the sub-contract is late P(Delay)=0.50.7

Slide 12November 5-6, 2009 Copyright © 2009 PMI RiskSIG Backward Propagation (effect to cause) Prior probability with no data (0.7,0.3) Posterior (learnt) probability (0.28,0.72)
13
Slide 13November 5-6, 2009 Copyright © 2009 PMI RiskSIG BNs Advantages u Rigorous method to make formal use of subjective data u Explicitly quantify uncertainty u Make predictions with incomplete data u Reason from effect to cause as well as from cause to effect u Update previous beliefs in the light of new data (learning) u Complex sensitivity analysis
