Diagram showing the order of activities
A project network diagram, also known an activity network diagram (AND) is a graph that displays the order in which a project’s activities are to be completed. Derived from the work breakdown structure, the terminal elements of a project are organized sequentially based on the relationship among them. It is typically drawn from left to right to reflect project chronology. Wikipedia →
