Abstract:

The report studied and evaluated the Armys personnel system by developing a model which enabled Army personnel management to assess quantitatively the impact of policies on deployment and readiness. The report deals with the development and use of DISTRO-IIDistribution Rotation model, essentially a modification of the General Matrix Manipulator GMM. DISTRO-II, which simulates additional factors affecting personnel distribution, more accurately models deployability characteristics of the Army than does either the GMM or DISTRO-1. The DISTRO-II model is described. Principles of the GMM and its interface with DISTRO-II are presented in detail. FORTRAN listings of DISTRO2 subroutines are provided.
