Morphological Analysis Update

Tom Ritchey sends this along, see my previous notes on this under the tag GMA.   Note that Morphology means structure ....  and just the structure of a problem, rather than including numerical specifications.

Dear Network,

General Morphological Analysis: Modelling, Forecasting, Innovation
Guest Editors: Tom Ritchey & Tomasz Arciszewski

We are happy to announce a Special Issue of Technological Forecasting and Social Change featuring General Morphological Analysis (GMA). The articles appearing in this issue are based both on papers presented at The Second International Symposium on General Morphological Analysis (ISGMA 2016), held in Bilbao 11-12 June, and on additional contributions provided by selected GMA practitioners globally. The articles for the Special Issue are now in press and will be available on-line shortly. The "hard copy" version will be available later this year.

Table of Contents
1. Introduction and Historical background (Editors)
2. General Morphological Analysis as a Basic Scientific Modelling Method
3. A Collaborative Process Model and Web-based Software-Support for GMA
4. Scenario Development with General Morphological Analysis
5. On a Morphology of Contact Scenario Space
6. Morphological Analysis in Inventive Engineering
7. Morphology of Conceptual Building Design
8. From Morphological Analysis to Optimizing Complex Industrial Operation Scenarios
9. Linking Fields with GMA: Sustainability, Companies, People and Operational Research 
10. Investigating Traffic Congestion: Targeting Technological and Social Interdependencies
11. An Informal Survey on the Application of Morphological Analysis in the Private Sector 
Kind regards,

  Tom
