Apply critical-chain scheduling principles to the Print Software, Inc., project presented in Chapter 6. Revise the estimated time durations by 50 percent except round up the odd time durations (i.e., 3 becomes 4). Draw a CCPM network diagram similar to the one contained in Figure (a) for the Print Software project as well as a Gantt chart similar to Figure (b). How would these diagrams differ from the ones generated using the traditional schedulingtechnique?
