ABSTRACT
Chapter 5 introduced the theory of location-based planning (or scheduling), particularly the power of combining CPM’s activity logic with location-based logic, and generic topics such as locations, location breakdown structures, location-based quantities, tasks, location-based logic and calculating durations based on optimal crew sizes. While there was much technical detail supporting that theory, there is more to a management system than the theory and basic techniques-as the power comes from the ability to model complex contexts and to apply the theory to the real world. The theory provides the basis for practical methods.
