The Exact Definition of Open End Activity

M
Mai Tawfeq 👤 Member for 16 years 3 months

Dears:

 

A discussing was going on in regard of exact definition of open end activity.

Some said that open end activity, the activity without successor and others said that open end activity which is belong and come under open end track or path even the activity has predecessors or successor but the end of track where it belongs is opened with no links to project completion date.

 

So now my dear I need some expertise opinions.

 

Thanks.

Updating Physical % Complete with MS Excel & P6

Hello, 

Summary: I am updating numerous traits of selected activities ( including physical % complete) for a project by exporting from P6 to Excel 2007 on Windows XP, updating the traits (including physical % complete), and then importing back into P6.

 

Problem: All the traits are changing almost perfectly except for Physical % complete, which doesn't seem to update at all.

What is online scheduling?

Online scheduling is the usage of competitive analysis (or online algorithms) on scheduling problems. Online algorithms is characterized by making decision "online", which means a point in the time axe. In this point of time, we can not see the future jobs or tasks, whereas we only know the jobs or tasks before or at this point of time.

J
John Peter 👤 Member for 15 years 3 months

Oh Hi 

I want to know my NEC contract and from some discussion on this forum  i understand 

1) This is New Engineering contract and created to resolved disputes when things goes wrong mainly in construction contract.

2) It clearly define the responsibilities of sponsor and contractor

3) Reporting time is same as normal construction contract in which contractor produce reports for client in monthly

4) And I assume that the change in contract can be done by a clause define in the contract how to accept changes.
