Mathematical Models for Manpower and Personnel Planning.

Abstract

Current work in mathematical modeling for manpower planning and personnel administration is reviewed with special reference to selected cases in the U.S. Navy. This includes (1) assignment models and their dynamic extensions (2) stochastic models with special reference to Markoff processes, including OCMM's goal programming extensions (3) input-output and activity analysis models, and (4) combinations and extensions with mathematical programming relations delineated. Evaluations of existing developments are delineated with possible paths for future strategies. Potentials for science as well as management are explored. (Author)
