The processes described would be extremely difficult and time consuming to
perform by hand. A computer can perform these types of calculation in less than
a second. A program has been developed to perform these calculations.

There is another document that describes how the program works. It has
descriptions of each module, inputs and outputs of each module and the program
sequence. The program document also provides test data to validate each module
of the program.
