What is Coping with Uncertainty : Modeling and Policy Issues. Lecture Notes in Economics and Mathematical Systems, Volume 581 about?
1 online resource (xiii, 330 pages) : Ongoing global changes bring fundamentally new scientific problems requiring new concepts and tools. A key issue concerns a vast variety of practically irreducible uncertainties, which challenge our traditional models and require new concepts and analytical tools. The uncertainty critically dominantes, e.g., the climate change debates. In short, the dilemma is concerned with enormous costs vs. massive uncertainties of potential extreme impacts. Traditional scientific approaches usually rely on real observations and experiments. Yet no sufficient observations exist for new problems, and "pure" experiments and learning by doing may be very expensive, dangerous, or simply impossible. In addition, available historical observations are contaminated by actions, policies. The complexity of new problems does not allow to achieve enough certainty by increasing the resolution of models or by bringing in more links. Hence, new tools for modeling and management of uncertainty are needed, as given in this book Includes bibliographical references Facets of robust decisions / Y. Ermoliev, L. Hordijk -- Stress testing via contamination / J. Dupačová -- Struc
