zimovet [89]

Answer:

Two activities scheduled to be carried out in parallel and using the same scarce resource are independent.

Explanation:

An Israeli physicist named, Eliyahu M. Goldratt developed the Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) and introduced it in his book "Critical Chain" in 1997.

The CCPM is a project management methodology used by managers to better manage a project. The CCPM ensures that the project plan is feasible and immune from any uncertainty or statistical fluctuations.

In the CCPM activity network, there are no milestones and all non-critical activities are performed as late as possible.

CCPM adopts the use of drum buffers, so as to ensure extra safety is applied to a project immediately before using constrained resource.

According to Goldratt, two activities scheduled to be carried out in parallel and using the same scarce resource are independent.
