Abstract
Mathematical expressi onsare derived for the operational
availability of a system having a finite number of standby
spare components. The availability expressions are then used
in a decision criterion for the selection of items to be
stocked to support units on extended missions with no resupply
capability. Various algorithms for determining how best to
allocate constrained resources so as to maximize system
operational availability are examined. Comparisons with the
current Navy shipboard allowance list policy reveal that
large potential savings in resources or better supply effectiveness
could result from implementation of the procedures
of this report.
