This report describes the procedures for using digital computer programs for analyzing GERT networks which contain nodes of the EXCLUSIVE-OR type and branches which have both a probability and a time associated with them. The time associated with a branch can be a random variable. The program calculates the probability, the expected time and the variance in the time to go from each source node of the GERT network to each sink node. Programs have been written in FORTRAN II and FORTRAN IV and have been exercised on the IBM 1130, GE 225 and CDC 3400 computers. This report details the operating procedures for using these programs. Four examples are included to illustrate the important facets involved in using the programs. Special options included in the program are: (1) printout of all loops and paths associated with the network; and (2) deletion of loops that have a probability of occurrence less than a value specified by the user. The program described in this report has been submitted to COSMIC
