Methods of Solving Some Personnel-Classification Problems

Abstract

The personnel-classification problems considered in this paper are related to those studied by Brogden (2), Lord (6), and Thorndike (8). Section 1 gives an approach to personnel classification. A basic problem and variations of it are treated in section 2; and the computation of a solution is illustrated in section 3. Two extensions of the basic problem are presented in section 4. Most of the methods indicated for computing solutions are applications of the “simplex” method used in linear programming (see 1, Chs. XXII, XXIII). The capabilities of a high speed computer in regard to the simplex method are discussed briefly (see section 1).
