How the System Dynamics Society came to be: a collective memoir

摘要

In this paper several of the early workers in the field of system dynamics tell some of the history of the Society itself. Several slightly different versions of this story have been told over the past several years and we thought it would be interesting to involve a broader group in this kind of modified oral history project. The paper is based on a series of separate written recollections that have been posted in full on the web at http://www.systemdynamics.org/history/oral_history.htm.
