#calcCriticalnessObject

Determine the criticalness of the individual task. This is a measure for the likelyhood that this task will get the resources that it needs to complete the effort. Tasks without effort are not cricital. The only exception are milestones which get an arbitrary value between 0 and 2 based on their priority.

end

#calcPathCriticalness(atEnd = false) ⇒ Object

The path criticalness is a measure for the overall criticalness of the task taking the dependencies into account. The fact that a task is part of a chain of effort-based task raises all the task in the chain to a higher criticalness level than the individual tasks. In fact, the path criticalness of this chain is equal to the sum of the individual criticalnesses of the tasks.

#checkForLoops(path, atEnd, fromOutside, forward) ⇒ Object

To ensure that we can properly schedule the project, we need to make sure that it does not contain any circular dependencies. This method recursively checks for such loops by remembering the path. Each entry is marks the start or end of a task. atEnd specifies whether we are currently at the start or end of the task. fromOutside specifies whether we are coming from a inside or outside that tasks. See specification below. forward specifies whether we are checking the dependencies from start to end or in the opposite direction. If we are moving forward, we only move from start to end of ASAP tasks, not ALAP tasks and vice versa. For milestones, we ignore the scheduling direction.

#countResourceAllocationsObject

This function does some prep work for other functions like calcCriticalness. It compiles a list of all allocated leaf resources and stores it in @candidates. It also adds the allocated effort to the ‘alloctdeffort’ counter of each resource.

Find the earliest possible start date for the task. This date must be after the end date of all the task that this task depends on. Dependencies may also require a minimum gap between the tasks.

#XrefObject

The parser only stores the full task IDs for each of the dependencies. This function resolves them to task references and checks them. In addition to the ‘depends’ and ‘precedes’ property lists we also keep 4 additional lists. startpreds: All precedessors to the start of this task startsuccs: All successors to the start of this task endpreds: All predecessors to the end of this task endsuccs: All successors to the end of this task Each list element consists of a reference/boolean pair. The reference points to the dependent task and the boolean specifies whether the dependency originates from the end of the task or not.
