| Critical path method - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (445 words) |
 | Using these values, CPM calculates the starting and ending times for each activity, determines which activities are critical to the completion of a project (called the critical path), and reveals those activities with "float time" (are less critical). |
| In project management, a critical path is the sequence of project network activities with the longest overall duration, determining the shortest time possible to complete the project. |
| An additional parallel path through the network with the total durations shorter than the critical path is called a sub-critical or non-critical path. |
