    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Guidance on the two graphical methods of representing the activities in a project: \'activity-on-arrow\' and \'activity-on-mode\'. A checklist highlights the main factors to consider before choosing the network mode. Recommendations on the level of detail to include, conventions and symbols to use and the estimation of values required for analysing networks.
