In addition, practical applications require robust designs which ensure performance goals are satisfied while accounting for model, noise, and control factor uncertainties. Recognizing the utility of a robust platform for design exploration, the Python Design Exploration Module (pyDEM) has been developed.
Kundi et al. seem to think that the precautionary principle should be applied whenever there is some scientific doubt or uncertainty, without recognizing that its use is limited by national regulatory and legal constraints, which we addressed in our commentary (Dolan and Rowley 2009).
Dessai and Van der Sluijs [ 5] present a framework in which they relate the suitability of various adaptation approaches to three levels of uncertainty: statistical uncertainty, scenario uncertainty, and recognized ignorance and surprisea.
Different adaptation approaches (see Additional file 1: Table S1) are suitable under different levels of uncertainty, such as statistical uncertainty, scenario uncertainty, and recognized ignorance and surprise.
An effective polytope integration method for evaluation of expected values and variances of revenue is adopted which can account for the effects of demand uncertainties on revenue while recognizing the uncertainty in inventory over time.
Modeling of the input data uncertainty is recognized as a crucial aspect in information granulation.
But years later, looking back on those moments of uncertainty, you recognize that you were still in motion.
Uncertainty is recognized as an inevitable characteristic of supply networks and managers need to be aware of its specifications and consequences of that.
Seeking to avoid the dogma of universalism, Janet Wolff proposes an aesthetics of "uncertainty" that recognizes that norms of beauty are grounded in communities and are thus ineluctably political, and yet does not relinquish the value of beauty (Wolff 2006).
The impact of uncertainty is recognized by some in Congress, including Rep. Eric Cantor of Virginia, who when asked about job creation by the Los Angeles Times noted, "What we need to do is to lower the price of risk to increase the confidence of those investors and small-business people who are going to be the job creators.
While uncertainty became recognized as useful, or even essential, in statistical mechanics and in some other areas (such as the actuarial profession or the design of large-scale telephone exchanges), it was assumed for a long time that the "probability theory" was capable of capturing the full scope of uncertainty.
