Box 2 of 2. Correspondence and other papers related to the preparation for the CSIR workshop to be held January 1997 in Accra, Ghana on the Workshop. See also, “Council For Scientific & Industrial Research (C.S.I.R) Workshop Fax Papers & Correspondence, Ghana October 1996” and “Council For Scientific & Industrial Research (C.S.I.R) Workshop Fax Papers & Correspondence," Ghana, November 1996.”
Communication between Warfield and John R. Payne, a professional appraiser, about the possibility of getting a value estimate on the textual materials in the Warfield Collection.
George Friedman explains what his job was with Northrup Corporation, and what he believed caused the failures of new systems and technologies in final testing stage. Friedman discusses his experience as chief technical officer at Northrup, where his job was to review the failures of new systems and technologies ads they were going through their final test phases. Concludes that the failures stemmed from an inability to comprehend complex problems.
Warfield requested feedback on generic design science and also on the concept of “recursive triad.” Percy replied with handwritten letters.
A five page thought piece by Warfield along with a manuscript by Kenneth Lane Ketner titled “Diagrammatic Thought: Peirce’s Revolutionary Method as Related by an Amateur Philosopher” with Warfield’s annotations. Includes 29 specific comments directed at Ketner and a discussion of Ketner and Peirce’s work, as well as Warfield’s own research.
A few thoughts on a possible new paper.
Correspondence between Warfield an multiple people including members of the GMU Administration, Susan Swope, Kingsley Haynes, Fred Rossini, Scott Staley of Ford Motor Company and Benjamin Broome. Dates range between February and October 1993.
Miscellaneous notes.
Written at Wilcox Electric Company. A set of universal design curves is given from which key design values can be obtained for most design problems involving varactor tuning.
A highly critical letter in response to a survey request from the Wiley Marketing Manager. While expressing friendship, sympathy and respect for editor Mike Jackson, Warfield gives history of the journal from its beginnings and deplores its decline in editorial policies and content. In a follow-up email message, he adds a few suggestions for improvement.
Formal letter of protest sent to editors of Systems Research regarding the selection of an anonymous reader for Warfield’s manuscript "Hypothesis Generation (Abduction)," which had been rejected.
This is one of two manuals given as handouts for the Simpsons-Dagli-Alberts Systems Science Program Short Course held 11-15 July 2007 in Sheffield, Alabama. The documents are chiefly figures or copies of PowerPoint slides, interspersed with written text by Warfield. See also, “Systems Science in a University Setting- Emails,” “Systems Science in a University Setting-Part 2-Structural Presentations,” and "Systems Science in a University Setting - Notes, with List of Materials."
A printout of all the database entries associated with the search term: "Peirce.”
The notations are written by Warfield to accompany a set of 13 VHS cassettes or the 13 DVDs derived from the tapes of "Product Information Management Systems (PIMS) Workshop At Ford Motor Company Jan. 11-14". See also, "Excerpts: Interactive Management (IM) Workshop - Product Information Management System (PIMS): A First Look" and "Demo Tape: Excerpts from FORD PIM Workshop filmed Jan. 11-14, 1994 in Dearborn, Michigan."
Warfield’s response to Levine’s paper “Peirce, Pragmatism and Interpretation Theory.”

A guide to use while watching videos of a four day Interactive Management Workshop held at Ford Motor Company. The original videotapes, filmed in 1992, were digitized in 2005 and are now available as an 8 disk DVD album to which Warfield has keyed this guide. The guide is usable for either of the video formats available at Fenwick Library where the workshop is formally listed in Warfield Collection C0016 as "Fifth Interactive Management Workshop…
Discusses how, with the assistance from a computer, groups can construct a massive flow chart that can be used to measure the relative complexity of any given problem situation. Warfield used engineering flow chart from Ford Motor Company Workshop as example and as a way to explain the concepts of transitivity and complexity measurement. This is a shortened version of a more technical paper, “A New Index of Complexity: The Aristotle Index.” Presented at World…
Discusses and describes the Work Program of Complexity (WPOC). Argues that following the WPOC yields predictable portfolio components, consisting of a well-defined mix of tangible and intangible products. Moreover, when utilized appropriately it can eliminate the three causes of poor intellectual productivity identified by Kenneth Boulding. This paper is the tutorial for a follow-up article titled: “Enterprise Integration of Product Development Data: Systems Science in Action.”
Documents and other materials related to designing a systems science doctoral program, presented in a short course by John Warfield, held at the York Terrace Baptist Church in Sheffield, Alabama, during the week of July 11, 2007. See also, "Systems Science in a University Setting-Part 1-Work Plan for Short Course," "Systems Science in a University Setting-Part 2-Structural Presentations, July 11, 2007 ( July 2007 Summer Short Course)," and "Systems Science in a University Setting- Emails…
