Published as a way of recognizing Warfield’s work. A compilation of 21 articles written by his colleagues at Battelle and elsewhere. Each article discusses some facet of the research which was spearheaded by Warfield, dealing with the methodology for solving complex issues in a systematic manner.

A discussion of learning principles and how they might be connected to classroom uses of graphics which are displayed and amended as learning progresses, through use of a computer. This is followed by an appendix in which the author's "Options Profile" methodology is described, concluding with an example of an Options Profile for environmental education at the secondary level. Presented at Annual Meeting American Educational Research Association, 8-12 April 1979, San Francisco, California.

A conference paper that describes the navigational system for airplane landings under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR), invented by John Warfield, for which he holds a patent. The system was built and marketed by Wilcox Electric Company of Kansas City, Missouri in 1965, initially for use at small airports where a 10 watt VHF Omnirange System is sufficient. The voractor-based electronic unit, without moving parts, was intended to replace the older mechanical units which were hard…

A discussion of some of the unconsciously held beliefs or "presuppositions" which contribute to human decision-making, usually without the awareness of the decision-makers. Building on the work of Peirce, Gibbs, Lemoigne and Argyris, the author proposes a methodology of generic design science be used to dislodge those "uncommendable" presuppositions on the part of designers & planners which have contributed in the past to disastrous planning and disastrous decisions. Submitted to Tenth European Meeting on Cybernetics…
