This report contains photocopies of 27 transparencies designed to aid in a discussion of the problems involved in getting the generic design science into our higher education, and some of the options and/or actions required. In Box 32 Folder 18 GMU Library has the BOOKLET by this title; it is a spiral or tape bound report derived from printouts of transparencies. It is Number 2 of a series of four small reports originating in 1990-1991 when Warfield created transparencies for use with faculty classes at Defense Systems Management College. The four small reports were distributed as audience handouts in the Ann Arbor October 22 1991 presentation to THE NATIONAL CENTER FOR MANUFACTURING SCIENCES, at request of Ford Motor Company. The 4 reports had yellow, green white and blue covers. Titles of the transparencies are given below, in the sequence which they appear in the printed booklet.

"Generic Design Science: Diagnostics" is one of a series of four presentation packages prepared originally as components of the educational program conducted by Warfield in 1990-1991 on behalf of DSMC, under Defense Dept. contract MDA903-90=C0192, As per the contract, copies of these transparencies were submitted to Professor Henry Alberts, of Defense Systems Management College, on 15 October 1991. Later, the pages were printed in a spiralbound booklet, and distributed as a small IASIS monograph. The booklets were distributed in Warfield's 1991 presentation to THE NATIONAL CENTER FOR MANUFACTURING SCIENCES in Ann Arbor, AT REQUEST OF FORD MOTOR COMPANY. The series originated in 1991, when Warfield created the transparencies for use with faculty classes for Defense Systems Management College. These transparencies were originally done with POWERPOINT, but another printing used WordPerfect graphics, I don't know which version is in Warfield Collection at GMU. The four booklets in this series are titled: 1) GENERIC DESIGN SCIENCE AND INTERACTIVE MANAGEMENT: AN OVERVIEW 2) GENERIC DESIGN SCIENCE: DIAGNOSTICS 3) INTERACTIVE MANAGEMENET WORKSHOPS: PLANNING FOR SUCCESS 5) GENERIC DESIGN SCIENCE: LAWS OF GENERIC DESIGN.
