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.
YOU CANNOT HAVE TWO ACTIVITIES WITH THE SAME START/FINISH NODE
