ABSTRACT
This book is about the location-based management system. So, in this chapter, we will explore the development of location-based planning theory. Location-based methods have a long history and, but for the arrival of computers and the development of commercial network planning methods, would likely be the dominant manual technique for scheduling projects. However computers did arrive, activity-based planning methods were developed (see Chapter 2) and the modern tools of CPM have come to dominate industry practice.
