Abstract

To describe and design an experimental in complex scheme experimental process, an activity network (like AOV network) method is proposed to describe it. Activity network is a nonrecurring graph with no negative weights and with a unique source and destination. A project consisting of a set of activities and precedence relationships can be represented by an activity network and the mathematical analysis of the network provides useful information for managing the project. The specific implementation way of this system is to simulate the process of pipeline-transportation in laboratory circumstance, and test the basic characteristics of crude oil in the process as well as with the process of changing circumstances. The design and analysis of experimental schemes system in evaluation system is on the basis of activity network and achieve automatically generated of variety of modes of experimental schemes.
