Abstract

This paper describes a computer program called UMPIRE that performs all the functions of an actual live referee for the game of Kriegsspiel. The program is written in LISP 1.5 for the System Development Corporation Q-32 Time-Sharing System. With slight modifications to the I/O functions, UMPIRE could be made operable on any computer having a LISP 1.5 compiler. The basic functions of the program are translatable into LISP 2.
