    Abstract: A method for determining a melt strategy for an additive manufacturing system comprises: receiving geometry data corresponding to a surface of a powder layer; populating the geometry data with melting points; assigning at least one treatment action to each melting point; assigning a melt parameter and a prerequisite thermal characteristic to each treatment action; generating a preliminary list; creating a revised order comprising a plurality of sequential unpopulated items; and populating the revised order by: identifying an earliest unpopulated item, determining if any treatment action comprises prerequisite thermal characteristics satisfied for a time of the earliest unpopulated item, assigning an assignment to the earliest unpopulated item; removing the treatment action comprising prerequisite thermal characteristics which are satisfied for the sequential time of the earliest unpopulated item from the preliminary list, classifying the earliest unpopulated item as a populated item, and returning to identifying the earliest unpopulated item.
