Transparencies to accompany the talk "Dual-Basis Design," which was later published in Polish with the title "Dwie Podstawy Projektowania (Dual-Basis Design).” The paper is a discussion of the concept of “due process” in design as a way to identify and monitor responsible management practices, which would lower the rate of catastrophic design failures. Warfield calls for the creation of a basic design science, with standards and practices for large-scale system designers that could become well-defined…
Four transparencies along with notes on their use during the talk titled “Implications of Scale for System Design.” The talk notes that large scale systems are being designed in the same way as small scale systems and discusses the problems that arise as a result.
A set of transparencies to accompany “Developing a Design Culture in Higher Education: Some Laws and Principles of Design.” Presented at Annual Meeting Society for General Systems Research, Los Angeles, CA, 27-31 May 1985. Warfield’s figure "Relating the Blocks of the Cosmic Partition" is included.
One of the transparencies Warfield used during two presentations before Society General Systems Research annual meeting 27-31 May 1985. See On the Choice of Frames for Systems Studies" and “Developing a Design Culture in Higher Education: Some Laws and Principles of Design.”
These are transparencies made for use with talk titled “What Disciplines Large-Scale System Design?” at American Society Mechanical Engineers International Congress on Planning & Design Theory, Boston Park Plaza Hotel, 17-20 August 1987.
Transparencies to accompany talk title “Artificial Philosophy and the decline of Technology,” presented at 1989 Simposio Internacao de Comunicao Significao e Conhecimento face as Technologias de Informacao, 13-15 September Lisbon. The paper advocates for a technology based on “deep logic” which utilizes Generic Design Science and a continuous reevaluation process.
Transparencies to accompany a talk titled “Simple System Models Based on Sophisticated Assumptions” that Warfield was supposed to present at the 1988 Annual meeting of the American Association for Advancement of Science (AAAS). Due to weather he was, however, unable to attend. The paper was later published in Polish with the title "Proste Modele Systemowe Oparte Na Skomplikowanych Zalozeniach: Klucz do Spojnosci w Zlozonym Uniwersum".
Transparencies to accompany “The Domain of Science Model: Evolution and Design,” presented at 1986 International Conference on Mental Images, Values & Reality, 30th Annual Meeting of SGSR, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, 26-30 May.
A set of 13 transparencies used for “The Magical Number Three--Plus or Minus Zero.” Presented at the International Conference of Society for General Systems Research, 1-6 June 1987, Budapest, Hungary. The paper reinterpreted the work of George Miller and H.A. Simon from the perspective of mathematical logic and shows that, especially in systems design, three is the “magic number.”
An overview of Warfield’s work up until 1989. Includes index which Warfield lists a number of subject divisions of his work and how his work has been utilized and applied by colleagues and organizations.
Copies of the transparencies used to accompany presentation on “On the Choice of Framers for Systems Studies,” presented at Society for General systems Research, Los Angeles, California, 27-31 May 1985.
Transparencies to accompany the talk “Twelve Laws of Design Science.” Presented at Fourth International Symposium on Industrial Engineering and Systems, ITESM (San Luis Potosi), San Luis Potosi, Mexico, 3-6 April 1990. Elements of this paper would later be incorporated into a longer paper titled “Generic Planning: Research Results and Applications.”
Contains letter from Warfield to Ralph Widner regarding the August 2001 Panetics Workshop, the Workshop Plan, and the Workshop Report. Workshop was facilitated by Carol Jeffrey.
A seven page bibliography of documents stored in the BIBLWIM database that related to Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM). Gathered to assist one of Warfield’s PhD students.
A step by step guide going through the construction and use of Options Fields during an Interactive Management Workshop.

Contends that Academia and Society each can be represented by two subdomains. Academia is divided into “Embedded” and “Fringe” subdomains while society is divided into a “Science-based Subsystem” and a “Floating Subsystem.” There are four possible intersections of these domains, which are known as Zones. The four Zones are: Familiar, Remnant, Vacuous, and Legacy
A list of 35 titles Warfield assembled and kept stored in his note-binder titled “New Paper Systems Programs in Universities.”
Warfield provides a paragraph summary of his eleven “principal discoveries.”
A list of 31 titles John Warfield considered to be his most important from 1968 to 1991. In includes two books, two bibliographies, and both published and unpublished papers or reports. It is an excerpt from a longer unpublished memo titled “Chronology of Developments Beginning Around 1968.”
