TRADES simulates cargo shipment between ports for two modes of operation, commercial and military over-the-beach cargo movement. This event-storing simulation, written in FORTRAN IV, accepts (as input data) ports, itineraries, cargo types and quantities, numbers of ship types, cargo transfer rates, and unit costs. The execution routines compute the time-distance-tonnage relationships for stated input data to establish cargo loaded, transloaded, and off-loaded at each port; queue characteristics; utilization of ships; and system operating costs. The output can provide entire histographic summaries at specified simulation intervals in desired formats for information at port for the entire system. This report describes the model's logic elements and all the inputs needed by the TRADES model. (Author)
