PROJECT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (PMS) THROUGH THE USE OF THE CRITICAL PATH METHOD (CPM)

This report provides scheduling, cost and resource control, and information handling convenience for individual and multi-project scheduling; but it does not design a network, or plan out a project. PMS functions as a handler, computer selector, and displayer of information which will increase the abilities of the project planner. This report includes an introduction to PMS through CPM, CPM program documentation, user instruction, and source computer program listings.
