An uncertain future, deep uncertainty, scenarios, robustness and adaptation: How do they fit together? (2016, background): “…generally need to be robust over long periods of time, making adaptive strategies (Beh et al., 2015a; Groves et al., 2014; Haasnoot et al., 2013, 2014; Hamarat et al., 2014; Lempert and Groves, 2010; Ray et al., 2011) a viable alternative to their more commonly used static, fixed counterparts.”
Operationalising a resilience approach to adapting an urban delta to uncertain climate changes (2010, background): “Resilience could therefore complement other approaches, such as robust decision making [53] and predict-and-prevent oriented approaches, to arrive at an overall strategy that limits probabilities, impacts, and exposure.”
Dynamic adaptive policy pathways: A method for crafting robust decisions for a deeply uncertain world (2013, methodology): “Lempert et al. (2006), Lempert and Groves, 2010 present a computer assisted approach to develop robust strategies across a variety of deep uncertainties, grounded in Exploratory Modeling and Analysis (Agusdinata, 2008; Bankes, 1993; Bankes et al., 2013).”
A metric and frameworks for resilience analysis of engineered and infrastructure systems (2014, methodology): “While 339 entropy has found some use in the engineering community as a measure of diversification impact 340 attributable to a project portfolio [24], we employ Shannon entropy as a metric to help address 341 deep uncertainty [25]-[31] in resilience analysis.”
Thresholds, tipping and turning points for sustainability under climate change (2013, background): “Approaches and computational techniques found valuable for designing adaptive policies under uncertainty include robust decision-making, real options analysis, decision trees, and roadmaps [23,45 ,47–49].”
Adapt or Perish: A Review of Planning Approaches for Adaptation under Deep Uncertainty (2013, neutral): “RDM has been applied to strategic planning problems in a diverse set of fields, including economic policy [28], climate change [5,29], flood risk management [30], sea level rise [31], energy resource development [32], and water resources management [25,33,34].”
A critical review on supply chain risk – Definition, measure and modeling ☆ (2015, background): “Reasons for the need to make decisions under these circumstances vary from lacking time and resources to collect, process and evaluate information to the inherent complexity of systems that forestalls predicting the consequences of a decision [32,59,84,161].”
