This pamphlet contains information and examples intended to show how the University of Toronto C.A.M.P.U.S. model operates. C.A.M.P.U.S. (Comprehensive Analytical Method for Planning in the University Sphere) is a computer model which processes projected enrollment statistics and other necessary information in such a way as to yield time-based…

The Concordia Parish, Louisiana school system established a program of computer assisted guidance with the purpose of increasing student's kmowledge and educational resources in the following areas: educational achievement, academic potential and limitations, attitudes and values relating to the educational program, vocational and educational…

A computer-based system for handling transcripts describing social behavior, verbal and otherwise, is described in this paper. Among the features of note in the system are the provision for fairly flexible conventions for noting, in transcripts, several kinds of useful data including actor designations, sequencing indicators, and user-defined…

The use of computer simulation model, C.A.M.P.U.S., as a tool of systems analysis for effective educational management and planning is described. The components of the C.A.M.P.U.S. model are discussed as they relate to planning, programming, and budgeting. Problems that can be analyzed using C.A.M.P.U.S. are considered, and the implementation of…

The Chief of Naval Education and Training (CNET) Automated Budget System II (CABS II) is an improved and expanded version of an earlier system which was developed by the Training Analysis and Evaluation Group (TAEG) to provide an efficient, easy means of handling the large volume of data necessary to produce budget documents. Intended as a guide…
