The NMCSSC Quick-Reacting General War Gaming System Data Input Subsystem. Part A

Abstract

The report is one of three volumes describing the computer programming specifications for the Quick-Reacting General War Gaming System (QUICK). This volume addresses computer programs of the QUICK Data Input Subsystem. It is intended to serve as the basis for program maintenance activities. Accordingly, it describes the program functions and contains flow charts for each program and subprogram of the Data Input Subsystem. Based upon suitable data base and user control parameters, QUICK will generate individual bomber and missile plans suitable for war gaming, and simulate the planned events. The generated plans are of a form suitable for independent review and revision. Subsequently, the planned events are simulated; various statistical summaries are produced to reflect the results of the war game. A variety of force postures and strategies can be accommodated.
