Development of a War Readiness Spares Kit Model and Solution Technique.

Abstract

This final report describes work completed under Research Number F33600-80-C-0423 during the period July 1980 through December 1980. This effort was performed for the United States Air Force Logistics Command at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. The work was performed by the School of Industrial Engineering and Management at Oklahoma State University. Dr. M. Palmer Terrell and Dr. Phillip M. Wolfe were co-principle researchers, assisted by Ph.D. students, Mr. Umit Yuceer and Mr. Shawn Yu. This effort was undertaken to develop a new model and approach for solving the War Readiness Spares Kit (WRSK) problem. This development and evaluation of a new model and computer program, referred to as the Greedy Algorithm, is described herein. This final report is divided into six chapters and four appendices.
