MODS establishes the total load that is placed on each resource across all of the projects and then attempts to find a schedule for those projects that best utilizes these resources. While it can do so automatically, the program benefits enormously from user assistance. You can nudge the solution in different directions using various means of control, much like a pilot navigates a plane to chosen destinations.

Suppose we aim to minimise the overloading of all resources. The blue bars reflect the total number of hours of his or her effort required over time while the red lines show the availability. While this is flat form most of the time, the areas where this line dips down reflect leave time such as the December or April pattern.
