The Critical Path is the longest path (sequence of activities) in a project schedule network diagram. Because it is the longest path, it determines the duration of the project and hence the finish date of the project given the start date.
Critical Path is one of the key outputs of the Project Schedule Creation activity

Critical path method - This is the schedule network analysis technique used to identify the schedule flexibility and the critical path of the project schedule network diagram. The critical path is the longest path (sequence of activities) in a project schedule network diagram. Because it is the longest path, it determines the duration of the project and hence the finish date of the project given the start date.The second important feature of the critical path method is to identify the flexibility in the project schedule by calculating the early and late start and finish dates of each activity on each path. The schedule flexibility of an activity is measured by the positive difference between the late start date and the early start date for the activity and is called float time or total float.Without a proper Critical Path Analysis, an efficient Schedule for the Project cannot be created
Critical Path Method (CPM) focuses on the time to complete the project and the other important activities on which a manager shall focus attention.
Yes, it's difficult to handle all things at a time like coding, designing forms and as well as documentation... always prefer to work in team..that will better and you will complete your project sooner. Critical path is usually used to define the tasks that need to be completed in order to complete a project. Depending on how good the software developer is, it could take them a short time to do each of the tasks, or a long time, or worse still take further time to find and correct any problems, so critical path is very important on any project, irrespective of how many people are assigned to the task.
In project management, certainly. It is not common for two paths to have identical timing, but it is certainly possible. And as soon as one or the other of them changes a bit you'll be back to one. You can plan a project with more than one or two critical paths, but reality is that one is going to 'emerge' as the true one.
the difference in critical and non critical task in a system is critical task are processes that the computer needs to operate correctly they are must have programs. Non critical talk are task that are running or can run but is not a crusial part if the task is deleted or ended then the OS should still fuction properly
