Abstract
We develop algorithms to calculate the probability distribution of the longest path of an arbitrary stochastic activity network with continuous activity durations by three techniques: recursive Monte Carlo simulation, series‐parallel reduction, and conditioning. Examples illustrate the use of the three techniques. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. NETWORKS, Vol. 48(3), 143–165 2006
