1. To the point
2. This example is a lot easier to understand than my own Professor, Thank you!
3. Professor Dansereau, i am a grad student studying supply chain management. is it possible for you to post the problem you are demonstrating in this video. I am currently in project management and this video is great. thank you for posting. did you do any others on this? thanks again
4. Thanks a ton for this. Needed this explanation real bad
5. Prof Dansereau,.Such a simple and clear example of resource leveling. I teach engineering students. May I use this example in my class?
6. resource smoothing
7. You saved me million thanks
8. Thank you prof Dansereau
9. Thank you Prof Dansereau
10. Good example with Great explanation !!!
11. What is your best answer to this network? I bet if you run the resource leveling in MSProject you will not get the best result and if you do it by hand - as this is a simple example - you may get an improved answer.
    
    Start > Task A > Task B > End
    Start > Task C > Task D > End
    
    Where Task A, B and D are 10 days long. Task C is 5 days long.
    Where Task A and C are executed by JOE and B and D executed by MARY.
    
    CPM network would be of 20 days. Resource leveled network in MSProject would be of 30 days (and also the answer of 2 in each 3 people that tries this exercise). However, there is an improved answer for 25 days. Did you find it?
    
    I can meet the challenge of sending improved networks of most MPP files that you may send it to me, using Russian algorithms for improved resource scheduling. You can write to youtube@peter.smello.email
12. Simple. Straight to the point. Very good explanation. Thanks
13. Prof Dansereau, may I use this video as part of my report in my Management class? Thanks!
14. Wonderful
15. Excellent
16. i would like thanku first for good video, but that could be very usefull for me if u can explain me "resource smoothing"... thanks in advance
