representation of a projet where tasks = arrows separates by nodes. Includes
also uncertainty evaluation.
CPM = Critical Path Method (Determine the Critical Path)

You're close, Gerard. It's Program Evaluation and Review Technique.
Developed by the Rand Corp in the 1950's to plan the Polaris missile
project which had a high degree of uncertainty due to the fact that it
had never been done before (launch a missle from a submarine
underwater).
