Description:... Four computer programs were developed at the University of Kentucky as simulation models for investigating factors affecting sawn log value over four hardwood sawing methods: quadrant sawing, cant sawing, decision sawing, and live sawing with rerip for grade. The programs are listed, along with information on the sawing methods, model assumptions, and program organization. (Author)
