A digital-computer simulation model of the incar ceration rates and characteristics of criminal offenders was developed and used to study the needs for developing new correctional institutions. The model gives insight into the snarls and pitfalls of the system and allows alternate plans to be studied prior to actual implementation. The data from an actual multicourt system are presented in detail.
