Correspondence between Warfield and various public officials regarding the National Science Foundation request for researchers to examine complexity. Included are letters to/from U.S. Senator Richard Shelby, GMU Prof. & Dean Jonathan Gifford, NSF Asst Director David Lightfoot, NSF Director Arden Bement, NSF staff members, Shelby's office staff members.
Argues that there is a certain sequence of system insights is embedded in (intrinsic to) the Work Program of Complexity. This sequence shows that there is one system science—not several—and that two methodologies are necessary and sufficient for this science. Understanding this sequence leads to the conclusion that there is one systems science - not several - and that two methodologies are necessary and sufficient for this science
Also known as The Complexicon Table this is a list of 45 PowerPoint presentations topically arranged, and fitted all on one page. The teaching of a complete Systems Science curriculum has been designed and displayed in outline, with numerical keys as to where to find the slides. This table should be used in conjunction with Managing the Unmanageable PowerPoint Slide Collection. See notes field for further details.
This is the transcript of a 30 minute talk, a guest lecture for a Systems Design class taught by Dr. Antonio Rios. John Warfield presented the lecture by satellite TV from Tampa, Florida to the class on the ITESM campus in Chihuahua, Mexico, 29 October 2001. For a video of the class see Diseno y Practica de Sistemas
The article is an overview and general summary of the articles appearing in this Special Issue, of which LI Ling is the guest editor.
A program announcement for a conference on 18-19 March 1960 at University of Arizona in Tucson. The document lists the complete conference schedule & calendar of events, giving titles and authors of the papers being presented. Warfield gave a paper titled “Expanding the Computer Spectrum with Microwaves.”
Newspaper clipping likely from Lawrence Journal-World published in Lawrence, Kansas.
Photocopies of correspondence with Ming-Sheng and students from the National Sun Yat-sen University, Taiwan who gave Warfield a gift in appreciation for his work. Includes pictures of the gift.
A study of the application of Systems Science to enterprise integration in a case study focused on corporate culture.
A collection of miscellaneous writings prefaced by an eight page guide. See also, “John N. Warfield Writings and Related Research Materials: DVD 1 of 2-Notes on Papers and Reports.”
First of two DVDs. A collection of the annotations by Rose Warfield, written over a ten year period, and revised intermittently, to accompany her database record of John Warfield papers. Includes copies of the documents, many of which are also found on the 2 DVD. See also, “John N. Warfield Writings and Related Research Materials: DVD 2 of 2-Papers and Report.” DVD-1 is a collection of the annotations by Rose Warfield, written over a ten…
Contends that management space is defined as a communication space, divided in two by a cognition partition, one part of which is the normal space, and one part of which is incompatible with typical executive behavior. When executives enter this part of the space it causes anachronistic behavior to take over and results in undesirable consequences.
Discussion of behavioral pathologies and the tendency for managers to underestimate their impact. The behavioral pathologies are identified as Individual, Group, and Organizational, depending on the ambient conditions under which they surface. They can, however, be avoided through proper planning.
A draft of “Systems Management in the Face of Complexity.” Paper lists and describes different behavioral patterns in management situations.
This drawing appears as Appendix B of the 1995 IASIS Report titled "Proposal: Demosophia-Type Situation Room Construction at George Mason University." It is the floor-plan for a room specifically designed for Interactive Management Workshops.
