摘要：In this talk, we consider the manpower optimization problem for a manufacturing companywith a hierarchy system ofMlevels. We take both the manufacturing plant workers and managerial staffinto account. The aim of the problem is to minimize the total human resource cost at the end of the timehorizon, while maximizing the total output. The problem is subject to a series of chance constraints, for whichthe number of staff operating in each level is ensured to satisfy the minimum number requirement with aspecified probability. This manpower optimization problem can naturally formulated as a stochastic discrete-time optimal control problem. We then show that this stochastic optimal control problem is equivalent toa deterministic optimal control problem. It is further shown that the deterministic optimal control problemcan be reduced to an equivalent linear programming problem, which can be solved very efficiently by usingthe interior-point algorithm. Finally, we conclude the paper with numerical simulations using real data from Singapore, Denmark and China.
