A Menu Technique for Utilizing VERT Interactively

Abstract

The report documents a menu technique which enables the user to execute the Venture Evaluation and Review Technique (VERT) in a quasi- interactive mode. VERT is run interactively through the user responding to executive file prompts and by the creation of VERT input data files through the use of a free form FORTRAN program. However, it is not totally devoid of batch processing since the free form FORTRAN program converts the user input into a card image file for later processing by the VERT FORTRAN program. Secondly, the menu technique provides an option for the user to run VERT, utilizing the IBM conversational Monitoring System (CMS) Batch Facility. The menu technique displays a series of menus to the user from which he may select any one of several options in executing the VERT program. The menu technique allows the user to ignore the many and varied housekeeping tasks required in executing the VERT program. Thus, the menu technique will significantly enhance the user's productivity.
