Silvern, Leonard C. – 1972
The fifth (of 14) volume of the Education and Training Consultant's (ETC) series on systems engineering of education is designed for readers who have completed others in the series. It reviews arithmetic and algebraic procedures and applies these to simple education and training systems. Flowchart models of example problems are developed and…

Peer reviewedSauer, G. – American Journal of Physics, 1981
Describes a one-dimensional model for an ideal gas to study development of disordered motion in Newtonian mechanics. A Monte Carlo procedure for simulation of the statistical ensemble of an ideal gas with fixed total energy is developed. Compares both approaches for a pseudoexperimental foundation of statistical mechanics. (Author/JN)

Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development, Paris (France). Centre for Educational Research and Innovation. – 1970
The Simulation Option Model (SOM) was developed as part of the Centre for Educational Research and Innovation work on educational planning. Its two main purposes are to be an analytical tool for the project on Educational Growth and Educational Opportunity and to be a direct contribution to member countries' own work in these areas. The model…

Hopkins, David S. P.; Massy, William F. – 1981
Drawing on the authors' extensive experience at Stanford University as well as the work of others, this book offers the first systematic approach to fiscal and human resource planning at colleges and universities. It shows how decision models can and should become an integral part of the planning process. The uses and misuses of planning models in…
