Abstract
This thesis traces the history of the practice of and organization
for operations research in the United States Navy. The author points
out that operations research was being conducted in the U.S. Navy before
operations research became identified as a separate science. From
that point its growth, major accomplishments and organizational changes
are described. The final part of the thesis outlines the organization
through which the Navy conducts its operations research and systems
analysis at the present.
