Panetics Workshop Aug 2001

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.


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.”

 

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.

 

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.



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.”

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.

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 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.



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.
