This study traces the development of a simulation of Operation STRANGLE, a World War II interdiction compaign. Primary emphasis is placed on the assumptions and necessary approximations made in the process of constructing the model in order to reduce the complex theaterwide conflict into several aggregated time dependent events. The campaign is discussed as well as the model methodology and structure. The computer program, written in FORTRAN IV, is listed ...
This is the third of the three volumes of the Analytical Manual of the QUICK System, and is concerned with the Simulation Subsystem, hereafter referred to as the Simulator. Volume I treats the Data Input and Output Subsystems, and Volume II treats the Plan Generation Subsystem. This volume describes the methodology and techniques used by the QUICK Simulator, its logical program flow, and its data requirements in sufficient detail for ...
