Description: The deadtime in a Naval Training Pipeline is defined as time spent by enrolled students doing things other than training. There are eight major categories of dead time and their effect has been to decrease the utilization of personnel to under 70% in recent times. Twenty-four courses for four years (1996-1999) have been selected for study. The Academic Setbacks for course with CDP identifier 6400 has been chosen for initial work and model building. The methods developed for this case will be applied to the others to the extent possible. The exploratory analyses will seek to discover internal patterns of setbacks. Failing this the process will be declared as time homogeneous and in a steady state.
