Abstract
Most of the articles that follow are the papers that formed the Distinguished Lecturer Series—i.e., the invited, thematic series—at the XIX International Meetings of The Institute of Management Sciences in Houston, Texas, on April 4–8,1972. There are two exceptions: (1) “The ORSA New Orleans Address on ‘Compact City’” by G. B. Dantzig and (2) “A Model to Study Revenue Sharing and Account for Regionalized Economic Activity and Social Goals” by A. Charnes, C. Colantoni, W. W. Cooper and K. O. Kortanek. The former, as its title suggests, was the basis of Dr. Dantzig's plenary lecture on April 27, 1972, to the 41st National Meeting of the Operations Research Society of America in New Orleans—to which he has added “An Agenda for Research on Urban Development”. The latter paper is intended to complement “Measuring, Monitoring and Modeling Quality of Life” which was presented by A. Charnes, W. W. Cooper and G. Kozmetsky, as the final Distinguished Lecture in the TIMS series at Houston.
