Node

The point on a schedule network diagram where relationship lines join, usually depicting an activity or milestone.

Key Points

  • Shows where dependencies attach to an activity or milestone.
  • Used in precedence diagramming; relationships (FS, SS, FF, SF) connect at nodes.
  • Often displays details such as activity ID, name, duration, and dates.
  • Serves as the building block of the schedule network used for critical path analysis.

Example

In a website project, "Develop Backend" and "Test API" are nodes. A finish-to-start dependency line runs from "Develop Backend" and connects at the "Test API" node, indicating testing cannot start until development finishes.

PMP Example Question

  3. A resource calendar constraint
