If you are not aware of her work, a Computer Sciences professor at
Stanford, Dr. Margaret L. Johnson, has developed software project dynamics
models built on Tarek Abdel-Hamid and Stuart Madnick's software management
model. It uses Ithink software...has a fully developed model just begging
to have people put their own numbers into the formulaes. It is a stock
and flow model and has been validated by a number of companies in Silicon
Valley, etc.

Resources available from Maggie are:
* a free video on systems thinking tools
* articles on dynamic modeling and software process
* information on the Abdel-Hamid/Madnick Software Management Model
(Ithink)
* training and/or consulting on dynamic systems modeling
