summary:Algorithmic nets (or flow diagrams) are a generalization of logical nets. They are finite, oriented and acyclic graphs or multigraphs with labelled vertices and edges. Certain total orderings of their vertices are called courses (or programs). The following measures of complexity of a course (together with certain chromatic decomposition of certain interval graph) are introduced: its length is the number of its vertices; its width is the maximal degree of a complete subgraph in the interval graph; its capacity of storage is the number of elements of the decomposition and the non-efficiencies of its scopes or of its addresses
