APL/JHU PERT REPORTING PROCEDURES.

Abstract

The APL/JHU PERT Milestone reporting system has been established as a management technique for determining the status of research, development, and engineering phases of programs for which the Applied Physics Laboratory serves as technical director. The principal revisions included in this edition are as follows: The treatment and construction of milestone events have been changed. The treatment and construction of interface events have been changed, and the concept of 'initial' activities has been introduced. The event numbering system has been revised. Procedures for encoding of network revisions have been extensively modified. Additional examples of summary report formats have been added. Transaction codes on the input cards have been modified. The relation of the PERT system to the corresponding computer programs has been more fully developed. The concept of 'potential slack' has been introduced.
