Abstract
Previous thesis research has studied optimal time-sequential
artillery fire distribution strategies in an attack
scenario by considering a two-person, zero-sum, deterministic
differential game. This past work is reviewed and extended
by developing additional computational considerations (i.e.,
manifold of discontinuity for the dual variables) and incorporating
these into an existing digital computer program
for the determination of optimal time-sequential fire support
strategies. The military significance and implications of
the structure of an optimal fire distribution policy are
discussed.
