Simulation for Manpower Reduction Afloat: A Trial Application,
Abstract
The purpose of the study was to determine the feasibility and demonstrate the heuristic method of application of the SHIP 2 simulation model to manpower reduction on Navy Ships. The approach was a three part, iterative method. The ship was simulated in its normal state; certain tasks were deleted (presumably to be performed ashore), and then certain billets were removed. The study demonstrated that the method was effective for the problem, and also that the moving of the specified tasks ashore could result in a significant manpower saving. (Author)
