A MINE SWEEPER COMPUTER SIMULATION.

Abstract

A probabilistic computer simulation, constructed under very simplifying assumptions, of mine sweeper operations is presented. The model is described along with its associated input and output formats. A listing of the CDC FORTRAN-60 program and a sample output from several computer runs are included. The model was constructed as a pedagogical tool in an attempt to familiarize beginning students of Operations Research with the Monte Carlo method as applied in computer war gaming. (Author)
