摘要

Many complex space and non-space programs are driven by performance requirements with cost and/or schedule being less dominant, if not dependent variables. The net result when comparing actual versus initial projections is cost and schedule change that grows (slips) during the course of a program. Several different samples of space and non-space data were examined to estimate descriptive statistics (e.g., mean, median, skewness, kurtosis) and determine what types of statistical distributions might represent schedule change data. The analyses performed also tested assertions of other researchers who postulated that space and non-space program schedule change can be represented by a normal distribution or an extreme value (Gumbel) distribution. A data sample of 28 NASA programs was examined to test the hypothesis claimed by other researchers that schedule change can be represented by a normal distribution. Both the skewness and kurtosis of the data and results from Anderson-Darling and Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistical tests show that this data is not normally distributed. A large sample of space and non-space programs (365 programs) was obtained and evaluated against 23 different types of continuous univariate distributions. Anderson-Darling and Kolmogorov-Smirnov test results show that all 23 distribution types (including normal and extreme value distributions) were rejected at the 0.05 level. The sample size was subsequently artificially reduced by only including every sixth value both from random and sorted representations of the data that also had values associated with on-time deliveries removed. Anderson-Darling and Kolmogorov-Smirnov test results show that the extreme value distribution could not be rejected at the 0.05 level. This potential contradiction resulted from the much smaller sample size versus the full sample (with or without on-time delivery values removed) which led to diminished statistical power of the Anderson-Darling and Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests; thus not rejecting the extreme value distribution at the 0.05 level. Consequently, sample sizes of roughly 200 or more data points may be necessary to provide a meaningful distribution fit of schedule change and potentially other data. For smaller, and particularly much smaller, sample sizes it is recommended that the data not be evaluated against candidate distribution types, but simply be converted into an ascending cumulative distribution function (CDF) and this function used as appropriate in subsequent analyses (e.g., Monte Carlo simulations).
