I went through the article and repaired some of grammar mistakes. Thank you for the advice.
  • referencing error in 5. method advantages
Reference error repaired

[edit] Content

  • Add an annotated bibliography
Annotated bibliography with references and follow-up section added
  • Could include further discussion or just suggested reading about CPM computer programs mentioned
I've added a section in general information, point 1.4 where I present some software and link to their pages. I decided not to put it in further readings
