Algorithm
1- Calculate initial early start (ES) and late start (LS) time
for each activity in the project, and set time now equal
to1, i.e., T = 1
2- Determine the initial eligible activity set (EAS), i.e., those
activities with all predecessor activities scheduled.
3- From among the members of the current EAS,
determine the ordered scheduling set (OSS) of activities
i.e., activities with ES < T, ordered according to LS with
smallest values first and within this characteristic,
according to least activity duration first.
Algorithm
4- Consider the activities in OSS in the order listed and schedule
those activities for which sufficient resources are available for
the duration of the activity. As activities are scheduled, update
the level of resources available, and update the members of
EAS.
5- Have all activities been scheduled, i.e., is EAS empty set ?
If Yes
If No
STOP
Set T new = T old + 1, and
