3tart time of a projeot= 3 (usually 0)
arly start time (3) for aotivity A:
lf it is beginning aotivity, 3(A)=3
0therwise, 3(A)= max(all predeoessors of A)}
arly finish time () for aotivity A=(A)=3(A)+t(A), where t(A) is the aotivity duration
Projeot oompletion time 1:
Late finish time (L) of aotivity A:
lf it is ending aotivity , L(A)=1
0therwise L(A)=minL3(all suooessors of A)}
Late start time (L3) for aotivity A: L3(A)=L(A)-t(A),where t(A) is the aotivity duration.
