Activity networks

Info
  • On Activity Networks (also called arc networks), the arcs are referred to as activities, and the nodes represent the completion of the task.
  • Each arc/task is labelled with a letter to represent it and the arrow is used to define the direction. The nodes are numbered starting from 0 (or 1).
  • The first node is called the source node.
  • You have to number each node as it is added to the network.
  • The final node is called the sink node.
