Shaw, W. M., Jr. – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1975
When circulation data are used as input parameters for a computer simulation of a library's circulation subsystem, the results of the simulation provide information on book availability and delays. The model may be used to simulate alternative loan policies. (Author/LS)

Zhang, Jinming – ETS Research Report Series, 2005
This study derived an expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm for estimating the parameters of multidimensional item response models. A genetic algorithm (GA) was developed to be used in the maximization step in each EM cycle. The focus of the EM-GA algorithm developed in this paper was on multidimensional items with "mixed structure."…

Church, Olive – Delta Pi Epsilon Journal, 1974
An exemplary project was funded in North Dakota to develop, implement, and evaluate a versatile office simulation program that would meet the needs of secondary students in varying situations. The Occupational Model Plan can substitute for, or complement the cooperative method in vocational office education. (Author/KP)

Haney, James E. – 1971
Various types of games are useful in the educational process both in school and beyond. This paper discusses some types and uses of games, as well as the issues involved, under these headings: nature of the learning process, educational games, nonsimulation games, gaming-simulations, simulations in urban planning, and gaming-simulations as…

Richards, Donald M. – Canadian Administrator, 1975
When applied to elementary and secondary schools, the Resource Requirements Prediction Model gained more acceptance at the system level than at the school level. Further research is required to construct a resource model that is specifically for use in schools. (Author/IRT)
