33. J. Nawrocki, PSP, Lecture 7 Progress tracking Problem: how to track a progress when a sequence of tasks is rearranged? Earned Value Method: Each task is assigned a number of credit points. Each task is assigned a number of credit points. To earn the points assigned to a task, the task must be completed. To earn the points assigned to a task, the task must be completed. The points reflect time complexity and are normalised to 1000 points.The points reflect time complexity and are normalised to 1000 points. T1T2 T1T2
