COMPUTER PROGRAMS FOR NATIONAL DATA BUOY SYSTEMS SIMULATION AND COST MODELS

Abstract

The document is divided into three sections to logically present a different level for three sets of readers. Included in Section 1 is a description of the: Integrated buoy deployment cost model program; Procurement, maintenance, and replacements-cost model program; 10-year TDP financial plan program; Buoy component characteristics data file; Fleet numerical weather central depth data. Section 2, Computer Programs Operating Instructions, is for those persons desiring another level of detail about the programs. This section presents the information necessary to prepare data card decks and operate the computer programs. Section 3, is the Maintenance Prgrammer's Manual for the programs and data described. This section is for an experienced FORTRAN programmer and is supplemented with appropriate flow diagrams, compilation listings and tape dumps.
