Abstract:

During the past 18 months the Manpower Operational Research Team of the Canadian Defence Research Analysis Establishment has successfully developed and implemented a manpower planning model based on Goal Programming techniques, which were originated by A. Charnes and W. W. Cooper. This manpower planning model, which is currently being used as a management control system to develop and evaluate officer manning plans at the Canadian National Defence Headquarters, will be described in this paper.
