Dynamic Progress Method

<p>Recent computer-based tools for project planning and management focus on user-friendliness and interconnectivity. However these programs function on the Critical Path Method or CPM which was created in the 1950s. These programs which involve simplistic models and methods ignore the fact that the underlying computations on which they function have become woefully inadequate for the complex projects of today.</p><p></p><p>The product of nearly a decade of work <b>The Dynamic Progress Method: Using Advanced Simulation to Improve Project Planning and Management</b> provides an overview of the research conducted while illustrating some of the issues with current approaches. It presents the Dynamic Progress Method (DPM) an innovative simulation-based approach to project management. It also includes instructions on how to use the accompanying DPM-based simulation tool pmBLOX to plan manage and analyze projects.</p><p></p><p>This groundbreaking book is a must-have resource for project planning and management. It introduces a new and better way of planning estimating and managing projects that corrects some of the fundamental flaws of the CPM. It brings the computational integrity of planning simulations up to speed with modern needs making it useful not only to current project managers but also to students who will become project managers.</p>
