1. activity dependencies
2. completed deliverables
3. positive lags
4. PERT triggers
Stefan wants an 86% probability that the actual hours needed to finish his project

scenario
2. the value halfway between the best-case number of hours and the average
number of hours
3. the value halfway between the average number of hours and the worst-
case number of hours
4. the average number of hours, as represented at the peak of the bell curve
