Provides a thorough review of the basic precepts of his "generic design science." Discusses the "Twelve Laws of Design Science" and gives short descriptions of how his generic design concepts are now being utilized in real life applications.

This is the title page and front matter of a comprehensive research bibliography dated 1972 through 1990, which was distributed for several years from Warfield’s office at 219 Thompson Hall, George Mason University. Click here for PART 2. In print both parts are combined as a single volume.

This is a scrapbook of materials is a rough draft, with computer printouts and handwritten notes, which preceded the formal report titled "Project & Funding Proposal for Development of Technology Transfer Centre.”

Excerpts, summaries and notes Warfield took while reading Muriel Rukeyser, Willard Gibbs (Woodbridge, CT: Ox Bridge Press, 1988).

A certificate that represents 25 years of service In the Commonwealth of Virginia, not at George Mason exclusively. Warfield taught at GMU for 16 years (1984-2000) and worked at the University of Virginia, Charlottesville for nine years as chairman of Electrical Engineering Department and director of Center for Interactive Management (1975-1984).

The Rodman program was a special set of classes and seminars provided exclusively for top-level freshman and sophomore engineering students at the University of Virginia. One of his earliest formal teaching efforts with his design theory. In 1984 And 1985 his paper "A course in generic design for engineers" was a close description of the ideas he put to use in the Rodman course.

This is Part 2 of a 2-part proposal. This part of the proposal asserts the possibility of a software capable of designing a super-language which is interchangeably usable and comprehensible among various intellectual and technical levels, to be called by the acronym GRAILS (Graphically Integrated Language System). The proposal includes photocopies of 6 published articles, five of which are by Warfield, and is based on the concept of a "Domain of Science Model" which uses…

Highly mathematical. Contains 23 numbered items all dealing with various mathematical terms, assumptions, formula or definitions.

A draft of a book. Serves as a good beginning introduction for someone wishing to understand the mathematics of structures and is easier to understand than the more elaborate papers which came later. Parts used for classes and/or other publications. Box at GMU contains letters relating to its publication.

Materials related to unfinished manuscript includes a part called Graphics Representations Glossary, then two appendices, one called Mathematics Glossary and another called Words Glossary. Warfield referred to it as “parts of a project which was never finished.”

This is one typed page, plus a nicely typed title page, apparently a beginning for a "graphics dictionary" project. Likely done around the time he was working on “Graphics Language” or “Graphics Representation Glossary.”

These are materials written by John Warfield in preparation for each of the six "Great University" Seminars held at George Mason University during the academic year 1989-1990. There are printouts containing abstracts and discussion outlines used as handouts for seminar attendees, in Warfield Collection C0016 Box 24, Folder 43 at Fenwick Library.
