Özet

Assignment of military personnel to positions is very demanding, primarily a manual process performed by detailers. Detailers try to satisfy needs and preferences of commands and personnel. In this paper, an analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and two sided matching based Decision Support System is proposed to assist detailers. The DSS is programmed to generate positions' preferences from position requirement profiles and personnel competence profiles by using analytic hierarchy process and matches personnel to positions by using two-sided matching. The use of the proposed DSS is demonstrated with an example. Also, the effects of preference list length on two-sided matching are examined. (C) 2008 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
