A multidisciplinary approach to the modelling of a socioeconomic system / Lloyd E. Peppard and John C. Beal.: Co22-588/1975E-PDF

"Multidisciplinary teamwork involving six widely different disciplines is described within the of northwest Ontario, Canada. This context of a dynamic model project is aimed at the application of dynamic modelling to the study of telecommunications development in Canada. Suggestions are made as to how multidisciplinary projects can be usefully undertaken in universities. The basic concepts of dynamic modelling are reviewed and the relation of these mathematical concepts to an actual socioeconomic system is clearly explained. Dynamic modelling is shown to provide an effective way to focus the attentions of the members of multidisciplinary teams, enabling many diverse disciplinary viewpoints to be brought together"--Abstract.
