Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Backward scheduling is the process of scheduling tasks from a due date or deadline and working backward to determine the start date and necessary resources. Therefore, focusing on customer due dates is an example of backward scheduling. Forward scheduling, on the other hand, starts from the current time and schedules tasks forward to determine the due date.
