A Network Flow Approach to the Initial Skills Training Scheduling Problem

Abstract

After commissioning, new Air Force officers typically require multiple rounds of training to be certified to perform their duties. With nearly 4000 2nd Lts. commissioned each year, scheduling of this training can be cumbersome. General personnel scheduling techniques are computationally intensive. We have developed a network flow approach to the Initial Skills Training Scheduling Problem.
