Explanation of the status codes.

Program-name         Package-ID  Status
DELFIC-TES           CCC-0257/01 Tested
SIMFIC               CCC-0257/02 Obsolete

Machines used:
Package-ID     Orig.Computer                       Test Computer
CCC-0257/01    IBM 3033                            IBM 3081

3. DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM OR FUNCTION - DELFIC-TES computes the transit gamma exposure from the airborne cloud resulting from a nuclear burst for fixed targets located on or above the earth's surface.


4. METHOD OF SOLUTION - The system is based on a method of producing "snapshots" of the moving cloud of airborne particles during the transport process of DELFIC. Each particle in each snapshot is then assigned an activity and these data are used to calculate transit exposure by employing an energy-dependent buildup factor technique.


5. RESTRICTIONS ON THE COMPLEXITY OF THE PROBLEM - 


6. TYPICAL RUNNING TIME - 

CCC-0257/01:

NEA-DB executed the test case included in the package on IBM 3081 in 65 seconds of CPU time.


7. UNUSUAL FEATURES OF THE PROGRAM - 


8. RELATED AND AUXILIARY PROGRAMS - The model employed is an extension of the Department of Defense Land Fallout Prediction System computer program DELFIC.
