In critical path analysis, CPM is :

  • A.event oriented
  • B.deterministic in nature
  • C.dynamic in nature
  • D.none of the above

Answer: B

CPM is deterministic in nature.

The critical path method assumes each activity has a single known duration and finds the longest path through the network, which fixes the project time. It is activity-oriented and deterministic.

PERT, by contrast, treats activity times as random (optimistic, most likely and pessimistic estimates) and is event-oriented, so 'event oriented' describes PERT rather than CPM. 'Dynamic in nature' does not describe either.
