1984 Personnel Form: Personal, Faculty and Miscellaneous Data: Form P-3A (6-77)
Form from George Mason University that verifies Warfield’s work at GMU and the University of Virginia.
Proposal: Project Description: US-China Cooperative Research Workshop on Systems Science
Proposal to National Science Foundation. Contains contact information for persons connected with systems movement in the U.S., China and elsewhere and of Chinese organizations and institutions interested in the work of systems science. The grant would have funded workshops and lectures featuring interactive Management and Systems Science.
Theory of Consistent Models
An unfinished article with mathematical definitions and symbols. Includes a rough drawing of a four-part graph/matrix.
What are the Definitions in the Constraint Theory of Leondes and Friedman?
A manuscript with 67 mathematical "theorems." A similar paper has 61 mathematical definitions. The two lists may be part of Warfield’s “Index to George J. Friedman's Constraint Theory.”
What are the Definitions in the Constraint Theory of Leondes and Friedman?
A total of 61 mathematical “definitions.” A companion paper has 67 “theorems.” The two lists may be part of Warfield’s “Index to George J. Friedman's Constraint Theory.
1949 Veterans Administration Form, Notice of Training Status-Charlton Arms Apartments-Columbia, Mo
Official Veterans Administration form filled out with data on Warfield giving subsistence allotment for graduate school training at University of Missouri, 1949. Includes Warfield’s army serial number.
Who is N. Bourbaki?
A fax message from Scott Staley to Warfield that includes copies from two reference materials which explain Bourbaki, the nom de plume of a group of mathematicians working in France.
Cognitive Structure of Pascal Syntax & "Requires for Good Results"
A computer printout showing a one-page drawing of a structure which has four cycles. Eight or ten short paragraphs on the same page describe how to read the structure. Folded in with the drawing of the structure is a larger drawing of a gigantic flow chart titled: "Requires for Good Results." A caption label on this flow chart says "Generic Requirements Flow for Software Development and Maintenance That is Not Now Being Satisfied.” Likely part of Warfield’s work on his 1986 proposal “ADA Syntax Study and Recommendations: A Proposal to The Software Productivity Consortium, Part I.”
Structuring Discursivity: A Field Representation
An unfinished paper on the subject of complexity and the use of fields, or categories. The Field is divided into 12 topics, with numerous sub-topics listed under each. The 12 primary topics are: Human Beings, Language, Reasoning, Thought Leaders, Formalisms, Science for Complexity, Models and Modeling, Processes, Education, Organizations, Products and Analysts. Although the two are unrelated, the subject matter of this paper is similar to “Managing the Unmanageable: Structuring Discursivity for the Domain of Complexity.”
Proposal: Narrative and Related Materials
A short description of Warfield’s work, contact information for persons familiar with it, and the citations of a few of Warfield’s published writings. It is part of a proposal to do a workshop for the NSF and is a response to a questionnaire from a NSF official.
