Abstract
Described in this paper is a generalized paradigm for planning and scheduling that is applicable to all project types, but which has exceptionally strong capabilities for modeling very large scale projects which involve significant repetition. Emphasis is placed on generalized activity-planning structures, generalized precedence relationships, true hierarchical scheduling, and schedule visualization. A realistic example is used to illustrate the concepts presented.
