PROBABILITY-OF-DAMAGE PROBLEMS OF FREQUENT OCCURRENCE

Abstract

Problems involving computation of the probability of damage, or the expected fraction of the target damaged, occur frequently in military operations research. These problems have been worked on by many people over a long period of time. This study is intended to summarize some of the more important results and to indicate sources of information on other problems. No attempt has been made to include an extensive bibliography or to track down the first man who derived any particular result.
