The CCTC Quick-Reacting General War Gaming System (QUICK). General Description.

Abstract

This document is a nontechnical description of the computerized Quick-Reacting General War Gaming System (QUICK). It includes a broad description of system operation, input data requirements, available outputs, and typical applications. QUICK is a tool for examining various facets of possible general wars under a variety of conditions of force posture, strategies, and starting conditions. Based upon suitable input data, QUICK will automatically generate global strategic nuclear war plans, provide statistical output summaries, and supply inputs to external simulators. The QUICK system uses an integrated data base and has been programmed in FORTRAN for use on the CTC HIS 6000 computer system. QUICK is structured to provide non-programmer users a direct interactive capability for a wide range of war gaming applications.
