Description: The Stop and Look Detection Algorithm is a procedure for computing the cumulative      probability of detection as a function of time for a searcher looking discretely for an      evading target. The assumptions required for computation are: target detection is      deterministic, i.e., cookie cutter, the target leaves datum on a random fixed course at      constant velocity, the searcher travels at constant velocity and the searcher stops and      looks for the target leaves datum on a random fixed course at constant velocity, the      searcher travels at constant velocity and the searcher stops and looks for the target at      predetermined search points. This report contains a description of the algorithm, the      IBM-PC BASIC Program for cmputation and several examples. Additional keywords:      BASIC programming language; Computer graphics.
