Summary Marine Forces Reserve (MARFORRES) is realigning its subordinate units in accordance with the Force Structure Review Group's (FSRG's) requirements. MARFORRES anticipates further realignment studies in the near future, where discretionary changes may be guided by and/or benefit from formal mathematical optimization. Specifically, adherence to demographics targets (for areas where the units are located) and minimization of cost are driving factors. This study will build on existing efforts by the co-PIs and thesis students to develop and computationally implement optimization models which can provide recommendations and insights into future MARFORRES realignment studies.
