Manpower Cost and Attainability in the Navy's Selected Reserve: The SELRES Force Structure Model
Published Date: May 1, 1986
This research contribution reports on the development of the Selected Reserves (SELRES) Force Structure Model, a new tool used to analyze manpower inventories and costs in the Navy Selected Reserve. For a given set of manpower requirements, the model projects a best obtainable manpower inventory by 69 rating groups and two pay-grade groups. By choosing from among the different mixes of accession programs that could produce this inventory, the model then finds the least-cost method of achieving it.
