Communications—Rand-HUD Fire Models
质疑1978年《管理科学》上一篇关于兰德公司为美国住房和城市发展部开发的消防服务管理模型成功实施的论文，认为其存在专业责任和能力问题。
The March, 1978 issue of Management Science carried a paper by Jan M. Chaiken titled “Transfer of Emergency Service Deployment Models to Operating Agencies” which purported to describe the successful implementation of, among other things, fire service management models developed by the Rand Corporation for the Office of Policy Development and Research of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The appearance of this paper at such a late date raises serious questions of professional responsibility and competence, both for the Rand-HUD team and for the management science and operations research communities.
