According to the Project Management Institute (PMI), project management is the application of knowledge, skills, tools and techniques to project activities in order to meet project requirements and objectives. [1] The challenging task of managing projects can be supported by an operation reserach technique called the Critical Path Method (CPM). The CPM is a mathematically-network based algorithm in which can be used for planning, scheduling and monitoring project progress. [2]

Consdideration of Time-Cost trade-offs
Once the critical path and timeing of activities has been identified - the next question is if it is possible to shorten the project in order to finish within a certein deadline.
Here is maybe possible to do an example of project crashing.
