George,
Ive two references for you:
1. Last December, the Cascade Systems Society hosted a talk by Dr Barry
Anderson [PSU Psychology Dept] on "Modeling the Criminal Justice System."
An abstract is at:
http://www.sysc.pdx.edu/css/cssfl126.htm
It was a very interesting presentation, and concluded that a major short- term bottleneck was the number of judges, while
the long term limitation was the number of prisons.
2. Last Summer, at the SCS Summer Simulation Conference here in Portland,
one of the presenters at the session I chaired did a presentation on
"Using Simulation for Business Reengineering at Derbyshire Constabulary."
The paper is in the conference proceedings [ISBN 1-56555-098-6].
I have one email from that:
A.Greasley@derby.ac.uk
Regards,
Steve
