7. One of the defining points of a schedule network; a junction point joined to some or all of the other dependency lines






8. Those processes performed to complete the work defined in the project management plan to satisfy project objectives






9. The degree to which a set of inherent characteristics fulfills requirements






10. Amount of time that a schedule activity can be delayed without delaying the early start date of any immediately following schedule activities.






11. Analytical technique that uses three cost or duration estimates to represent optimistic - most likely and pessimistic scenarios.






12. Centralized coordinated management of a program to achieve the program's strategic objectives and benefits

24. Risk that remains after risk responses have been implemented






25. Schedule activity that follows a predecessor activity as determined by their logical relationship






26. Provision in the project management plan to mitigate cost and or schedule risk. modifier: management reserve (unknown risks) - contingency reserve (known - but unplanned risks)






27. Project schedule network diagram drawn in such a way that the position and length of the schedule activity represents its duration. bar chart that includes schedule network logic






28. Approximating the number of work periods needed to complete individual activities with estimated resources






29. An estimating technique that uses a statistical relationship between historical data and other variables (sq. foot in construction - lines of code in software development) to calculate an estimate for activity parameters such as scope - cost - budget






30. Specific version of the schedule model used to compare actual results to the plan to determine if preventive or corrective action is needed to meet the project objectives






31. Those processes performed to finalize all activities across all project management process groups to formally close the project or phase






32. The time in calendar units between the actual start date of the schedule activity and either the data date of the project schedule if the schedule activity is in progress or the actual finish date if the schedule activity is complete






33. Float (total float - free float)






34. Requests to expand or reduce the project scope - modify policies - processes - plans or procedures - modify costs or budgets - or revise schedules

40. The calculation of late finish dates and late start dates for uncompleted portions of all schedule activities. determined by working backward through the schedule network logic from the projects end date

43. Person or organization that is actively involved in the project or whose interests may be positively or negatively affected by execution or completion of the project






44. Tracking team member performance - providing feedback - resolving issues and managing changes to optimize project performance






45. Point in time that work was scheduled to start on a schedule activity. called planned start date.






46. Analytical technique used to determine basic underlying reason that causes a variance or defect or risk






47. The process of finalizing all activities across all of the project management process groups to formally complete the project or phase






48. Processes involved in estimating - budgeting - and controlling costs so that the project can be completed within the approved budget
