Descripción
Resumen:The Royal Navy's manpower planning system represents a highly complex queue which is affected by many variables, and therefore it is essential to understand the influence of these variables and the interactions among them. As real experimentation was impractical and infeasible, a computer-based simulation was developed to model the system which needs to be studied. This paper illustrates how computer simulation and experimental design was applied to identify the key risk variables within the manpower planning system at the UK's Royal Navy.
