Abstract :
The purpose of mathematical organization theory is to explain in a reasonably quantitative fashion some of the basic characteristics which are observed in organizations of man and/or machines in practice. Such a theory is outlined below. It is based on the assumption that many organizations are designed to execute certain complex tasks which exceed the capacities of their components. With these capacities suitably defined, one is in fact led to organizations whose structures and standard operating procedures bear a remarkable resemblance to those observed in practice.
