Abstract

Complexity results for problems of evaluating the criticality of activities in planar networks with duration time intervals are presented. We show that the problems of asserting whether an activity is possibly critical, and of computing bounds on the float of an activity in these networks are NP-complete and NP-hard, respectively.
