Abstract:Examines project scheduling advances in a job‐shop or order‐driven
environment. Scheduling is an important part of the project management
process. Some antiquated ideas remain, but many dramatic advances have
been made, primarily due to computer‐based solutions. Today′s scheduler
can take advantage of both personal computer‐based and larger
system‐based software. Describes “Timeline”, a program for
common personal computers, and “Jobscope”, a package for
mid‐size machines.
