Abstract
What I want to do this evening is to talk in a general, but I hope constructive, way about some of operations-research's most intractable problems—those associated with uncertainties, and especially with those uncertainties tinged with ‘game’ elements. My own operations-research experience is pretty much restricted to military problems but, for an examination of the implications of uncertainty, this doesn't seem to me to be too important. For the kinds of uncertainties that we encounter in military problems have their counterparts and analogs in business and in everyday life (Address of the Retiring President, Operations Research Society of America, Seventeenth National Meeting, New York, May 19, 1960.).
