18. Fall 2006 18 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering How to create a schedule Start with major tasks, then break into smaller tasks Identify the dependencies Assign ownership Enter into MS Project

19. Fall 2006 19 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Classic tasks Design: create a solution of several units Simulate: see if model works Build, code, fab: make it real Unit testing: stimulate unit and observe result Debug: fix something Integration: put the pieces together System testing: test the entire project

20. Fall 2006 20 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Unit development A single unit often requires iterative steps OK? Done Debug Design ModelSimulate Start no yes Test Build

21. Fall 2006 21 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Integration & sys test Prototype results from integrating the units Unit Integrate System Test OK? Proto Debug yes no

22. Fall 2006 22 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Scheduling terminology PERT: program evaluation and review technique CPM: critical path method Task: activity Milestone: point in time that measures progress Critical path: sequence of tasks that can not be delayed or project will be delayed Slack time: time a task can be delayed without changing the critical path

24. Fall 2006 24 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Using MS project Tool for creating and tracking a schedule 1.Create a new, blank project 2.Create tasks, milestones 3.Insert dependencies 4.View or print summary 5.Update with new information

25. Fall 2006 25 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Scheduling hints Adjust the level of detail –Avoid too much, too little –Suggestion: 1w < task < 2w Tasks –Don’t enter fixed dates !!! (except end) –Use ASAP priorities, don’t mix with ALAP –Exercise conservatism, not optimism

26. Fall 2006 26 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Scheduling hints, continued. Exploit parallelism Resource management –Don’t over commit –Avoid idle time Consult experts Baseline to other projects

27. Fall 2006 27 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Using MS project Tool for creating and tracking a schedule 1.Create a new, blank project 2.Create tasks, milestones 3.Insert dependencies 4.View or print summary 5.Update with new information 6.Save project often, back it up

28. Fall 2006 28 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Creating new project file  new  blank project

29. Fall 2006 29 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Saving your file file  save as

30. Fall 2006 30 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Schedule views Gantt chart –Text and bar graphics –Less cumbersome, suggested view to use Pert chart –Also called network diagram –Flowchart format, boxes & arrows –Easily overwhelms the screen

31. Fall 2006 31 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Adjust time scale format  time scale Middle to months Bottom to weeks

32. Fall 2006 32 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Insert a task insert  new task project  task information Fill in the blanks for the various tabs Milestone is a task with zero duration

33. Fall 2006 33 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Properties of a task Title: unique, descriptive name Owner: who is doing the work Duration: how long will it take Type: as soon as, as late as Dependencies: predecessor tasks Successors : follow-on tasks Cost: $$ Priority: H, M, L

34. Fall 2006 34 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Task properties Use ASAP only !!

35. Fall 2006 35 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Resource list tools  assign resources project  task information

36. Fall 2006 36 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Simple project: no dependencies

37. Fall 2006 37 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Adding dependencies project  task information

38. Fall 2006 38 CS-EE 480 Lillevik 480f06-l10 University of Portland School of Engineering Dependencies added Project Gantt chart
