商品描述

This book explores how project scheduling, risk analysis and control can be understood, tested and taught through data-driven experimentation. It presents 10 Python-based example experiments that guide readers from fundamental scheduling techniques to advanced project control methods. All project data and code are provided, allowing readers to reproduce, modify, and extend every analysis.

The first part introduces the Critical Path Method as the foundation for structured scheduling and extends it to time-cost optimization and resource-constrained scheduling through heuristics and integer programming. The second part employs Monte Carlo simulation to capture schedule uncertainty and to measure activity sensitivity for both unconstrained and resource-limited projects. The third part focuses on project control, using Earned Value Management (EVM) to replicate forecasting accuracy studies from academic literature.

The book's distinctive contribution lies in linking theoretical scheduling principles with executable Python models, enabling a transparent exploration of how data can drive project decisions. It raises questions about the adequacy and complexity of project data, the measurement of uncertainty and the balance between simplicity and realism, offering both conceptual insight and a practical laboratory for data-driven project management.The book offers an educational yet forward-looking approach, combining clear explanations with ten reproducible Python-based experiments. Readers are encouraged not only to understand, but to experiment, i.e. test and extend the models themselves. By bridging theory and practice, it provides a hands-on and reproducible framework to explore how data shapes scheduling, risk analysis, and project control. The book is particularly suited for use in courses on project management, operations research or decision analytics, as well as for self-learners eager to build technical and analytical data-driven project management skills in a structured way.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書探討如何通過數據驅動的實驗來理解、測試和教授專案排程、風險分析和控制。它提供了10個基於Python的示例實驗，指導讀者從基本的排程技術到進階的專案控制方法。所有專案數據和代碼均已提供，讓讀者能夠重現、修改和擴展每一項分析。

第一部分介紹了關鍵路徑法（Critical Path Method），作為結構化排程的基礎，並通過啟發式方法和整數規劃將其擴展到時間-成本優化和資源受限的排程。第二部分利用蒙地卡羅模擬（Monte Carlo simulation）來捕捉排程的不確定性，並測量無限制和資源有限專案的活動敏感性。第三部分專注於專案控制，使用賺取價值管理（Earned Value Management, EVM）來重現學術文獻中的預測準確性研究。

本書的獨特貢獻在於將理論排程原則與可執行的Python模型相連結，使得數據如何驅動專案決策的探索變得透明。它提出了有關專案數據的充分性和複雜性、對不確定性的測量以及簡單性與現實之間平衡的問題，提供了概念上的洞察和一個實用的數據驅動專案管理實驗室。本書提供了一種教育性且前瞻性的方法，結合清晰的解釋和十個可重現的基於Python的實驗。鼓勵讀者不僅要理解，還要進行實驗，即測試和擴展模型。通過橋接理論與實踐，本書提供了一個動手操作且可重現的框架，以探索數據如何塑造排程、風險分析和專案控制。本書特別適合用於專案管理、運籌學或決策分析的課程，以及渴望以結構化方式建立技術和分析數據驅動專案管理技能的自學者。
