Based on some earlier work by Wollmer on how to approximate the expected time-cost curve for a random PERT network, the paper demonstrates how it is possible to instead find a curve that bounds the true expected time-cost from below. This is done by showing how the necessary cuts can be generated based on different bounding procedures from the literature.
