Utilizing fuzzy banana curve for project monitoring and control by Mahmood Jahanbani, Hamid Shahbandarzadeh

“…It considers the fuzzy duration of project activities and compares it with the actual progress curve, analyzing the effects of environmental vagueness by setting various α-cuts. According to the results of the research, if the actual progress percentage curve is above the ASAP curve with α-cut=1, the project plan may not be defined accurately; if this curve is below or close to the ASAP curve with α-cut=1, It can indicate the excellent performance of the project management, if this curve is placed under the ALAP curve with α-cut=0, the project manager has used all the capacity to change the duration of the activities and all the floats of the scheduling network and has had the worst performance in the project. …”
