We detail the structure of HCN factors and continuing effects of turnover and dy- namics of HCN utilizing given information and run simulations to examine the contagion of turnover and analyze the sustainability of HCN. We interpret and present our results along with robustness analysis and strengths and weaknesses of our model. For Task 1, we build two networks (Personnel Relationship Network and Organiza- tional Network), which together form our Human Capital Network. We extract important information from problem material and make assumptions when necessary to deduce the detailed structure and assign employees with the offices. We propose an evaluation function of assignments and use Genetic Algorithm to find the optimal assignment. The assign- ment provides us with new information about employee relationship(co-office relationship etc.), together with the supervisory relationship form the edges in HCN and complete our network building. For Task 2, we first detail the turnover in terms of factors and impacts and evaluate the c
