Introduction to Training Decisions Modeling Technologies: The Training Decisions System
Abstract
This paper is an introduction to the Training Decisions Modeling Technologies under development at the Armstrong Laboratory. These technologies are intended to support Air Force Training Managers by providing them with cost and resource information about the impact of their decisions on the AF training system. The Training Decisions System (TDS), which forms the baseline technologies for the research program, uses information about jobs performed by airmen, personnel assignment flows, course training content, and training resources to determine training capacities and the most cost-effective training options available. The TDS develops a model of a job specialty's Utilization and Training (U and T) pattern according to data collection results and simulates the flow of airmen through it. Based on this simulation, TDS tabulates the costs associated with training and evaluates the training capacity of the training system (i.e., the ability of the training system to provide training to a given number of airmen).
