General, systems science, simulation analysis : an introduction

As part of this historical presentation he discusses the meaning of the general, systems-science, simulation analysis approach as he perceives it. This discussion of the meaning of general systems-science simulation analysis permits him to relate the general, systems-science, simulation approach to more specific techniques. As his colleagues deal with the specific applications which they have made, he is not very specific with respect to case studies; instead, he discusses validation and verification of general, systems-science simulation models. The manuscript is completed with a discussion of the developments still needed in the general, systems-science, simulation, analysis approach to policy, program and project analysis at both macro and micro levels
