This document is Appendix 1 of a larger manuscript titled "National Medal of Technology: 1994-1995 Nomination" submitted by H. Alberts. Publications by Warfield are divided into topical groups, and within each of the topical groups the titles are listed chronologically covering the years 1957 - 1994 The groups are: A. Publications Related to Interpretive Structural Modeling B. Publications Related to Interactive Management C. Publications Related to the Science of Generic Design D. Publications Primarily on…
Part 2. Designed to accompany talk at Defense Systems Management College, Ft. Belvoir, VA on 16 August 1996. This document is unfinished, there are 6 pages of tables designed for the paper, but only the first three tables are filled in with descriptors. The table design is four columns, with column headings of Type of Control, Phase 1- Planning; Phase 2 - Workshop; and Phase 3 - Implementation. In the vertical Type of Control column…
This document is missing. Would like to find a copy of it. I believe it is a newsletter article. Printed under this title in Pennsylvania State University Engineering Review, December 1953. p. 68.
Materials related to a seminar/workshop presented at ITESM (Instituto Tecnologico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey), Monterrey, Mexico, 11-15 December 1989. Includes a lot of travel itinerary sheets and correspondence, plus a draft outline of the course, with lists of a large number of transparencies and Warfield papers which were taken to the seminar for use and distribution to the attendees. The manuscript notes also include class worksheets written by the participants.
Slides to accompany lecture titled "Managerial Self-Delusion via Killer Assumptions," which was planned by Warfield to be Number 13 of an overall series of 14 videotapes to be called "Managing the Unmanageable." For a video of the accompanying lecture, click here.
This is “Condensed Patterns Relevant to the Science of Complexity (1997)” under a different name. Presented at International Systems Thinking Conference and Workshops, University of Capetown, 4-7 November 1997. See also, “Condensed Patterns Relevant to the Science of Complexity (Structure-Based School), Generic Design Science, and Interactive Management (1998).”
One of two workshops given in South Africa on Interactive Management. Presented at International Systems Thinking Conference and Workshops, University of Capetown, 7 November 1997. For the other workshop, see “Managing Complexity.”
Prepared as a precis for the EFL essay competition, this short chronology is a summary of the development of Interpretive Structural Modeling, and of the theoretical background supporting its efficient utilization, from 1968-1990. Written in March, 1990, it was used as the basis for the long essay titled `Generic Planning: Research results and Applications'.
Abstracts for lectures 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 13 and 14, nine of which were made into videos in year 2000. See notes field for a list of the titles.
This tape bound booklet was prepared as a handout to accompany Warfield's seminar/talk before the Phoenix chapter of INCOSE (International Council of Systems Engineering) on 5 December 2003. See notes field for a list if its contents.
Description of Warfield’s application of Interpretive Structural Modeling to environmental learning concepts while he served as a project director of an environmental education project for the U.S. Office of Environmental Education. Compares the conclusions of previous educational research with his own recently developed educational methodology and argues that his approach is much more effective. Proceeds to cover the Options Field and Options Profile methods and show how they may be used with the help of…
This is a printed tape-bound booklet created by Warfield in response to Kluwer Publishing Co questionnaire for authors, in which they asked for book information, possible marketing outlets, etc.
Discusses the significance of thinking in sets, making decisions from a series of options, using a "mathematics of display" and study of the theory of relations as important parts of a university's freshman year mathematics curriculum. Deplores that such ideas are being ignored by educators
An outline of a book Warfield hoped to write. It includes a table of contents plus chapter headings with topical headings listed as the text of each chapter, plus the names of the papers and books which would be the source for the full text manuscript. Used as a handout during a one-week short course for the Center of Academic Excellence, Instituto Tecnologico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, (ITESM) Monterrey, Mexico, 27-31 July 1992.
Transparencies to accompany “Complexity Lecture #6.” Part of a series of 12 lectures on complexity given at the Johnson Center, George Mason University. Second of three lectures on the topic of Science. A VHS video is available.

Augmented by a 2-page introductory Preface written in September 1997, this manuscript consists of Chapters 8, 9 and 10 of John's out of print book Societal Systems, using original page numbers, from p. 208 to p. 284. These chapters contain the essential mathematics needed for understanding Interpretive Structural Modeling and for writing the software. The manuscript, an 82 page report, served as a student manual. It was precursor to, “The Mathematics of Structure”
Presented as a four day short course for the Instituto Tecnologico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, (ITESM) Monterrey, Mexico, 5-9 June 2000.
A fragment of an article which apparently was intended to be quite long. This manuscript has two outline or contents pages of the projected complete paper, followed by three pages of typed text.
Slides to accompany lecture titled "The Mathematics of Structure," which was planned by Warfield to be Number 4 of an overall series of 14 videotapes to be called "Managing the Unmanageable." A video of this lecture is available.
