Defining and understanding risk and uncertainty is a relatively complex affair, which in itself may be an obstacle to passing on new knowledge of the cost of risk, which is the primary purpose of this book.

Research and innovation by their nature involve uncertainty: there are many possible outcomes from a particular activity or programme. An uncertainty only becomes a risk when one or more of the possible outcomes would lead to an unwanted event, a major loss, large downside, or other undesirable effect.

Coping with Uncertainty and Risk
2011In the previous chapters, reference has been made to the uncertainty, which characterizes measurements and assessments related to climate change, and the risks accompanying policies to adapt to and/or mitigate the impacts of global warming. Particularly in the case of the facts, based on (IPCC, 2007a), about global warming and relevant projections into

This chapter discusses the unknown future. With uncertainty, something good or bad may happen. In investment, one is often concerned with the likelihood of the latter. Then there are complicating unknown unknowns. The investments return known only ex post sums it up as for a roulette ball that has reached standstill.

Uncertainty is prevalent in policymaking, and is thus an important dimension of policy evaluation and BCA. This chapter introduces the methods and practices to take uncertainty into account in BCA. The pedagogical approach consists in building on the contrast between two related concepts, such as risk versus uncertainty, static versus sequential ...

The chapter goes into more detail about risk and uncertainty, arguing that we focus too much on the former and not enough on the latter. The chapter clarifies concepts we’ll need for subsequent chapters. These include decision trees, psychology, and social risk.

Computer Fraud & Security, 2011
In the dim and distant past, when the office had, at most, a single computer, the wrath of the manager was visited upon staff for taking home pens and notebooks. In the modern world, business staff can remove a great deal more. The availability of high-capacity storage media and email makes it relatively easy to take sensitive business information ...

Closely linked with the problems associated with the timing of production, as discussed in the last chapter, is risk and uncertainty, which are often associated with the production and sale of products. Implementation of production that takes a very long time is often associated with uncertainty regarding the price which can be obtained for the product
