A computer program for the simulation of the replenishment procedure for a satellite-based communication system
Abstract
A computer program is described by which the sequence of launches can be simulated that is required for the installation and maintenance of a satellite-based communication system. A 'Monte Carlo' method is used for the generation of random events. Details of the satellite functional model, reliability model, allocation of resources to requirements, and decision rules are given.
