| − | The precedence diagramming method (PDM) includes four types of independencies or logical relationships. <ref name="pdm"/>
| |
| − | PDM is a tool for programming activities in planning a project. It is a method of constructing a network diagram of the project schedule that uses boxes, called nodes, to represent the activities and connects them with arrows that show the dependencies.
| |
| − | PDM, In a network technology project, focuses on the precedence of activities and logical relationships. It is also known as the activity-on-node or AON and used by many project management software packages.

| |
| − | Four types of dependencies or logical relationship are linking predecessor activity and successor activity together in PDM. Predecessor activity comes before successor activity which is logically a depended activity in a schedule planning. Example: collecting data in a software project management is a predecessor activity and analysing the data is a successor activity.
| |
| − | An activity must be time bound with a start and end time. This time bounding acquires the four types of dependencies between predecessor and successor which defined below:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | • Finish-to-start (FS): A successor activity can start when a predecessor activity has finished. Example: building the walls (successor) in a house cannot start before finish the foundation (predecessor).
| |
| − |
| |
| − | • Finish-to-finish (FF): A successor activity can finish when a predecessor activity has finished. Wall construction (predecessor) is required to finish before electrical wiring (successor) inside the walls can finish.
