the calculation of late finish dates and late start dates for the uncompleted portions of all network activities, determined by working backwards through the network logic from the project end date. The end date can be specified, although it is usually calculated in a forward pass .
a project schedule that consists of baseline start and finish dates, which represent an estimated or expected schedule, or both. This schedule is often derived from an initial set of early , late , or scheduled finish dates. Typically, once a baseline schedule is established, it does not change over the course of a project.
the calendar date when work on an activity is scheduled to end. This date is usually estimated, or it can be derived from the early , late , or scheduled finish dates. Typically, once a baseline schedule is established, it does not change over the course of the project.
the calendar date when work on an activity is scheduled to begin. This date is usually estimated, or it can be derived from the early , late , or scheduled start dates. Typically, once a baseline schedule is established, it does not change over the course of the project.
the sum of the approved cost estimates (including any overhead allocation) for activities (or portions of activities) that are completed during a given period (usually project-to-date). See also earned value .
