Harris, William M. – 1976
This book argues for an adaptation of Forrester's urban dynamics model for evaluating the impact of desegregation on the Seattle public schools. It is suggested that the Forrester modeling scheme may be useful in the definition and the evaluation of desegregation programs in public schools. In particular, the model suggested should be useful in…

Alkin, Marvin C.; Bruno, James E. – 1970
Any general systems approach has five basic elements, which serve as the tasks for the researcher using systems analysis. The five are (1) the objectives, (2) the alternatives, (3) the costs, (4) the model (or models), and (5) the decision rule. With these five steps, the researcher should be able to specify the objectives, select alternatives,…

Barker, Bruce O.; Petersen, Paul D. – 1984
This paper explores the fault-tree analysis approach to isolating failure modes within a system. Fault tree investigates potentially undesirable events and then looks for failures in sequence that would lead to their occurring. Relationships among these events are symbolized by AND or OR logic gates, AND used when single events must coexist to…

Pfeiffer, John – 1968
A demand for more and better education has driven educators to seek the help of systems analysis in the process of decision making. Basic to the entire systems notion is the concept of a model, a simplified but controllable version of the real world. The systems approach, once the problem is defined, is to specify the subfunctions and…
