User's Manual Logistics-Over-The-Shore (LOTS) Updated Simulation Model

Abstract

This report provides the documentation supporting a Logistics-Over- the-Shore (LOTS) simulation model. The report describes the model's sequences beginning with the arrival of one or more cargo ships through until the cargo has been delivered to an inland destination. The report also provides the coded main program and all subroutines. An earlier version of the model was used to support the U.S. Army Trans-Hydro Study. The updated version was used in the OSD-sponsored Joint LOTS Test and Evaluation Program to assist in test planning and subsequently the modeling of test results. The model is an expected value one that makes straightforward calculations based upon fixed values input by the analyst. The model is written in ANSI-FORTRAN.
