@ danieltennis and rohanftw - i got stuck for ages on that question. I said B because the first task was completed. I assumed that slack time was refered to if both tasks started at the same time, one finished but the other had 5 days to go until the milestone. Hence the task that finished would have 5 days slack time.

@johnbpj - i got c also, cant remember the question tho, i remember that i got stuck on it

I'm not too sure about the last MC q. I'm getting confused

Here's the definition of lag time and lead from Mark Kelly's website:

Lag is the the minimum amount of time that must pass between the finish of one activity and the start of its successor(s). For example, if task A is painting a wall, and dependent task B is putting up a picture on the wall, there would need to be some lag time between the end of task A and the start of task B to let the paint dry.

Lead time occurs when a task should theoretically wait for its predecessor to finish, but can actually start a little early. The time that the tasks overlap is lead time.


So wouldn't the answer be A. But according to the text book, it will be B.

sigh...

but in our exam, it said it MUST wait 10 days If I remeber correctly. Thus that would be 10 days slack for X, aka A I think.


I put A down. Hopefully I'm right

no if you draw it out its 10 days lag time for task X, so by process of elimination, it has to be lead time.

That's what I thought, and also the question was in relation to the other task, not task x, and would therefore be refering to its lead time.

i said B as well for question 20 as it was in relation to the time coming up to Y, if it was in reference to task X then the 10 day delay would have been slack/lag time for task X

I just realised for the wiki relationship question I marked storyboard, and then I have no idea why but rubbed that out and marked flow chart.

for the wiki relationship one, i chose structure chart (if that was one of the options, coz it wanted a link between each page on the wiki, not wat the wiki looked like?

That was my deciding factor: Info Priv = Government

I originally had storyboard then changed to flow chart.

It's annoying because there are many website 'flow charts' showing pages, but that is not how it is defined in the course so it's wrong.

i think it was structure chart, as it wanted to show how pages were linked together

therefore it cant be a flow chart (generally used to show a procedure) or a story board because it needed to be something that could show a link between two pages
