Abstract

This publication is the second report by the Survey Project on the structure and content of a proposed Series of monographs and a Handbook to survey the state-of-the-art of applied systems analysis. In the first report (RR-76-16, Systems Analysis: An Outline for the State-of-the-Art Survey Publications, July 1976), we presented a revised outline and current guidelines for the Survey Project publication program; in the present document, the sequel. we discuss the response to a questionnaire -- distributed widely throughout the systems analyst community -- upon which our revised outline is based.

This report should be of interest to the questionnaire respondents, and to a wider audience as well. in that it reflects what some 160 analysts and others associated with systems analysis think about systems analysis, what they consider to be vital and important in this area, and what they think to be peripheral or of minor relevance.
