Cohen(1972)

Michael D. Cohen and James G. March and Johan P. Olsen, "A Garbage Can
Model of Organizational Choice", Administrative Science Quaterly,
Vol.17, No.1, pp.1-25, 1972.
有名なgarbage can modelの論文．
計算組織論の文脈で位置づける予定．
organized anarchyの3つの性質．

The first is problematic preferences. In the organization
it is difficult to impute a set of preferences to the decision
situation that satisfies the standard consistency requirements for a
theory of choice.
(pp.1)

The second property is unclear technology. Although the
organization manages to survive and even produce, its own processes are
not understood by its members.
(pp.1)

The third property is fluid participation. Participants
vary in the amount of time and effort they devote to different domains;
involvment varies from one time to another.
(pp.1)

この時代ってFortranなのね．
organizational strructureにかんしてpredefinedなので，そこについてふれる感じで．
あと，いちおうagent-basedなsimulationではある．
ついでにdecision making processはdescriptiveなタイプだ．
