This paper gives a bibliography on applications of multiple-objective methods which use no a priori explicit value function and are complex enough to require mathematical programming aids. A commentary on the applications and on the survey is also given which may be helpful for further work of this kind. The survey covers the period 1955-86.

A total of 240 goal programming articles that have so far appeared in over 60 English journal publications are compiled and classified according to technique and application areas. Analysis of these data provides interesting insights regarding goal programming article characteristics, literature trends and future needs.

Military manpower planning models

A goal programming model for planning officer accessions to the U.S. Navy from various commissioning sources is developed and described. Present and future requirements for different career specialty areas in the Navy are considered in terms of years of commissioned service and related to various “choke points” where inventories fall short of requirements in officer force structure. An illustration of the use of this model is provided which involves assessments of the effects of phasing out one comissioning source. Other uses and possible further extensions are also indicated for this model, which now forms a part of the Navy's manpower planning procedures.
