Time-Shared Computer Programs for Officer Structure Policy Planning.

Abstract

The thesis develops two personnel flow models which can aid the manpower policy planner to predict future officer structures through the use of a time-shared computer system. The underlying structure is presented for both models. One model considers promotions based on length of commissioned service. The other model considers promotions based on length of time in grade. Computer programs are developed for both models and sample outputs are shown. The programs are used on a time-shared computer system so that the policy planner can interact with the computer with a minimal knowledge of computer programming. The computer output is in a concise, easy to understand form. (Author)
