ACTIVITIES TIMING AND TOTAL FLOAT To determine timing of activities in the network diagram the following calculations were done for each node: Earliest Start-(ES)‚ Earliest Finish-(EF)‚ Latest Start-(LS) and Latest Finish-(LF). Field and Keller (1998‚ p. 191) ES and EF are found by using the forward pass through the network … from the unique project start node and ends at the unique project completion node. ES is the ending day for the previous node/activity‚ where more than one

error associated with active monitoring are effectively mitigated by way of a reduction in the amount of video monitored. Additionally‚ passive monitoring becomes more active by automatically analyzing human behavior in the background. As a result‚ automated behavior analysis could effectively increase public safety through a reduction in criminal activity by identifying suspicious or abnormal behavior “during the suspicion stage itself” (Gowsikhaa‚ Abirami‚ & Baskaran‚ 2012‚ p.
