This is just a couple of paragraphs describing what IASIS is and what it does.
This is a list of articles and papers Warfield assembled and considered “Core documents” in his collection of unpublished writings.

Discussion of the inadequacies of traditional hypothesis generation for Systems Science and suggestions for what can be done to rectify the problem.
The theme of this paper is “Second Order Thought.” It is a lecture on the history of thought with connections to the current state of Systems Science. Describes the contributions of 23 persons to the development of systems thinking. George Washington University Lecture, American Society for Cybernetics, Washington, D.C, 29 October 2005.
A table that provides an answer to the question “How do you know if it’s complex?”
Describes the types of activities pursued by the Institute of Advanced Study in the Integrative Sciences and consists of 5 sections: Goals, Products, Current Student Projects, Organizational Projects, Contact Information. This is the first of two bulletins. See also, “IASIS Information Bulletin #02: Information Directory.”
Description of history and goals of Warfield’s research, followed by addresses and sources for persons wanting more information. Second of two bulletins issued by the Institute of Advanced Study in the Integrative Sciences. See also, “IASIS Information Bulletin #01: Goals and Products.”
Unfinished paper that proposes a new study area on use of computer modeling to structure technical articles. Accompanied by a letter from Warfield to Don Kash and Kingsley Haynes.

A small thought piece Warfield sent to Richard Evans. It discusses Godel’s theorem and explores systems engineering. Evans responded suggesting that Warfield use this material for an upcoming NASA short course at Wallops Island, 5 February 1997.
A preliminary version of set of tables created in an attempt to provide an overview of all the work he has been doing. Includes four tables along with a table of contents that has summary statements for each of the four tables. Warfield used a slightly later version of his paper during a conference in Cape Town, South Africa, in November 1997. See “Condensed Patterns Relevant to the Science of Complexity (Structure-Based School), Generic Design…
Contains syllabus, student roster, correspondence and some of the handouts used during Warfield’s Short Course on Interactive Management at GMU. The full title was “Workshop on Interactive Management, Systems Thinking and Complexity” held 15-18 February 1999 at the Johnson Center, GMU.
A list of 23 books and articles written between 1989 and 2007. Each title is followed by brief annotations. Warfield developed the list in an effort to interest different universities in the establishment of a systems science curriculum.
