Richards, William D., Jr. – 1975
Network Analysis is an observational system focusing on the relationships of individuals within a system--their subgroups, their leaders, and the frequency of their communications. The strength of relationships can be measured by examining the incidence and duration of intercommunications. Using data accumulated by questioning each member of the…

Marcovitz, Alan B., Ed. – 1978
A particularly difficult area for many engineering students is the approximate nature of the relation between models and physical systems. This is notably true when the models consist of differential equations. An approach applied to this problem has been to use analog computers to assist in portraying the output of a model as it is progressively…

Wells, William J. – 1974
The flowcharts and computer programs prepared for use in conjunction with the Procedures Manual for the Student Accountability Model (see JC 740 394) are presented. The programs provide an illustration of how one district applied the flowchart to its own hardware capabilities. The flowcharts are: Assign Course Priority, Assign Student Major,…

Linebarger, Dean; And Others – 1976
This booklet presents the rationale and processes for ENSIM II, a computer-based long-range enrollment simulation model designed to consider variables not usually addressed in traditional projection techniques. The first ENSIM model was constructed for districts facing extensive residential growth and had as its primary focus the analysis of…

Kimberling, Clark – Mathematics Teacher, 1984
A computer program is presented which simulates the classical probability machine, using Applesoft II high-resolution graphics. Many variables are left to the user's choosing. Suggestions for using the machine, understanding the problem, the mathematical model, and further program documentation are given. (MNS)

National Bureau of Standards (DOC), Washington, DC. Inst. for Computer Sciences and Technology. – 1981
These guidelines for communicating effectively the details of computer model design and operation to persons with varying interests in a model recommend the development of four different types of manuals to meet the needs of managers, users, analysts and programmers. The guidelines for preparing a management summary manual suggest a broad spectrum…

Gilmore, William; And Others – 1974
Traditionally, the most commonly used methods of forecasting school enrollments have been those that looked to the past for a picture of the future. In restricting the forecaster to projections of past trends, the "percentage survival" technique ignores a host of current trends implicit in a changing society. A second problem with most…

Wapner, Leonard M. – Mathematics Teacher, 1984
Two models are presented that can be understood by students who have completed second-year algebra, as well as by calculus students. The predator-prey population model and the arms race model are included, with a computer program given for each. (MNS)

Summers, Anita A.; Wolfe, Barbara L. – 1975
This publication discusses the difficulties of calculating reliable income estimates for particular groups of people and presents a methodology for overcoming those obstacles. Basically, the procedure involves setting up cumulative distributions of housing values, rental values, and family incomes for each census tract. Average housing values and…

Hummel, Thomas J. – 1976
"Algorithmic counseling" is an attempt to apply recent instructional regulation techniques to graduate counselor training and research. This paper seeks to explain what algorithms are, why they could be useful, and how they can be constructed. A central motivation for studying algorithms is their utility in showing students how to accomplish a…
