Abstract:

The report presents a technical description of MESA, a fully interactive, highly modularized computer model designed to analyze a variety of possible sequences of battle situations. MESA is designed to accomodate on-the-spot changes in various factors and rapid rerunning of the problem MESA can be modified for automatically sequenced runs with variations in the input data for use in sensitivity analyses. Appendixes include a sample calculation, MESA organization, and a JOSS computer program. Author
