Interactive ADAGIO Computer Program as an Aid to Crisis Relocation Planning.

Abstract

The ADAGIO computer program was developed to provide an initial allocation of population from evacuation centers to reception centers in planning for the relocation of population away from risk areas under an imminent threat of nuclear attack. A modification of this computer program is described which allows for interactive adjustments at a time-sharing computer terminal of initial allocations based on user judgment. Operating instructions and examples of output are presented. The general context of possible Automatic Data Processing needs in this type of planning activity is discussed. (Author)
