This paper deals with mathematical human resource planning; more specifically, it suggests
a new model for a manpower‐planning system. In general, we study ak‐classed hierarchical …

The present paper proposes a non-homogeneous multivariate Markov manpower system in
the general category of mathematical human resource planning. More specifically, we …

This paper proposes a two-phase multiple criteria stochastic dynamic programing approach
for personnel selection process. In the first phase, analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is …

This paper describes the mathematical formulations that have underpinned the development
of a strategic-level, personnel sustainability planning tool for the Australian Army. The tool …

Non-Homogeneous Markov Chains and Systems: Theory and Applications fulfills two
principal goals. It is devoted to the study of non-homogeneous Markov chains in the first part …

The present paper deals with the exercise of recruitment control to a time dependent,
hierarchical system which incorporates training classes as well as two streams of …

This paper is concerned with the asymptotic behavior of a time dependent Markov model in
a stochastic environment, with special relevance to manpower systems. The stochastic …

In manpower control studies, it is is well known that in attaining a desired structure from a
given structure or maintaining a given desired structure, it is possible to achieve these using …

In large workforces, such as the Public Servant workforce of the Canadian Department of
National Defence, many staffing actions (hires, departures, promotions, transfers) are …

In the present we establish a law of large numbers for non-homogeneous Markov systems
(NHMS), for which the inherent non-homogeneous Markov chain has arbitrary transition …
