The scheduling subsystem of the ALMA software system is described. Since weather will play such an important role in science observations with ALMA, the telescope will operate primarily in a dynamic scheduling mode. Current environmental conditions together with the current state of the telescope itself will be used to algorithmically determine the best scheduling block to execute at any time. This technique implements a micro-scheduler; at each moment in time it answers the question: ``What is the best thing to do now?'' The fundamental concepts used to solve this problem are presented as well as the software architecture of this subsystem.
