Abstract

This paper presents a study of the applicability of the PERT method to the project management process of the microelectronics design center in comparison with the optimization mathematical model, which formed the basis of the software developed earlier. The study was based on corporate and cluster analyses of the projected results of project implementation by microelectronics design centers. The predicted values were obtained using a network model based on the PERT method and a mathematical model. To study the degree of similarity of the results of the network and mathematical models, we used a visualized proximity matrix constructed by the Ward method based on the criteria of the square of the Euclidean distance. The results are graphically represented by a similarity dendrogram. The paper illustrates the obtained dependencies of the implementation time on the totality of the number of simultaneously executed projects, the number of works and performers. The conducted studies have shown a significant correlation between the projected time of project implementation through network and mathematical models. That is, there is a direct relationship between the calculated time of implementation of mathematical and network model projects. Comparative analysis has shown that from the point of view of the minimum project execution time, the forecast of the PERT method network model is more flexible and relevant for managing small groups of projects.
