Abstract:

An ALGOL 60 computer program for a Marconi-Elliott 900 series computer with paper tape input and output is presented and described in sufficient detail for someone not experienced in either PERT or computer programming to understand how to make use of it. The program is in current use to analyze network diagrams and to produce the several types of relevant reports required. Particular attention is paid to the practical updating of the network, and to the use of the reports as a valuable medium for communication among members of a project team. Author
