Activity in Box Notes:

In the planning phase of a project, all the activities and tasks are listed and organized into a diagram, called a network diagram. When a network diagram is developed for a project, a few principals or considerations must be taken into account. Moreover, some defined formats of a network diagram are used. One of the format is called Activity in the Box (AIB). In this format, every activity of the project is showed by a box and the description of the activity is written in that box. A unique activity number is assigned to each box i.e. activity. Arrows are used between the boxes to show the sequence.
