| Abstract | A construction project is represented by a network with activities on arrows. All activities can be randomly arranged and events randomly numbered without repetition prior to computer processing. Cost functions are assumed to be linear. A structural model composed of columns and plates is proposed to represent activities and events of corresponding network. An algorithm is presented based on the model. A computer program in FORTRAN IV is then developed to serve the following functions: a. Checking illegal conditions of a network described above, b. Reordering the sequence of input activities. c. Renumbering events of the network in ascending order. d. Performing critical path scheduling. e . Compressing the network to a required completion time. A desired schedule is obtained regarding its minimum project cost. |
