Crashing is the technique used for reducing the project schedule duration by adding resources to critical path activities. It involves analyzing the project schedule to identify activities critical to the project completion and then adding resources to those activities to compress the schedule. This technique is used to obtain the greatest amount of schedule compression for the least incremental cost. The other options, deflating, compacting and minimizing, are not associated with any cost and schedule trade-offs.
