Graph Theoretic Algorithms for the Ground Based Strategic Deterrent Program: Prioritization and Scheduling

As programs grow larger and the interdependencies of the program activities get complex, tools are needed to introduce more rigor into program management to reduce schedule risk. The authors of this report describe novel methods delivered to the Ground Based Strategic Deterrent program office to reduce the likelihood of rework in program execution and provide insights into schedule risk and how to restructure task dependencies to manage risk.
