Theory of Design: Axioms and Laws

This manuscript, two pages containing four axioms, was used as reference material for a class Warfield taught during the 1985 Fall Semester.

The document advances ideas for continued training workshops for Ford Motor Company engineers.

This manuscript is actually the printout of a slide presentation given by Mary Simpson while attending the INCOSE conference in July 2010.

We sent to library as an Accopress binder containing correspondence, approximately 1 inch thick.

This is the exact copy of  ORIGINAL PRESENTATION, BEFORE LATER REVISIONS.  Presented by Warfield at a joint session of the Northern Virginia IEEE Computer Society & IEEE Society on Social Implications of Technology, 22 June 1988, in Arlington, Virginia. He later revised and updated this manuscript . See, “Technomyopia Threatens Our National Security.”

A critique of the 1987 "Military Software Task Report," which was authored by the Defense Science Board (of the office of U.S. Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition) in 1987. Warfield is critical of implicit assumptions in the Task Report which have been accepted by U.S. Department of Defense, in an expenditure policy which was threatening our national security and helping to make us a second-rate economic power. Includes a number of suggestions for improving the situation. Originally the basis for a talk Warfield gave on 22 June 1988 at a dinner meeting of two IEEE Societies. See, “Technomyopia Threatens Our National Security: Presentation.”
