20110153506 | PROJECT ANALYSIS TOOL - A project analysis tool receives a set of activities of a project, receives user input that specifies an activity attribute, groups the activities into groups according to different attribute values, and displays each group's activities within a line located by their start times. Alternatively, the tool receives user input that specifies a start entity and an end entity, determines paths of the activities of the project between the start entity and the end entity using received predecessor/successor relationships, and displays each path's activities within a line located by their start times. Alternatively, the tool creates time phases, populates them with activities based on start/end times, performs metric analysis on each time phase, and displays each time phase's analysis information. The tool also divides groups/paths into time phases across groups/paths, identifies segments that are the intersection of a time phase and a group/path, analyzes each segment and displays its analysis information. | 06-23-2011 |
