Event Description:
Monte Carlo simulation is named after the European city famous for games of chance (which is a polite way of saying gambling!). This session will explain the fundamentals of Monte Carlo Simulation (aka Schedule Risk Analysis) and show how it can be easily applied to enhance the realism of schedules in Microsoft Project. Who knew that throwing some dice could dramatically increase our chance of delivering projects on time!
