Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a framework for understanding how engineers make technical decisions under uncertainty and proposes that problem solvers select the problem's uncertainty and ambiguity levels in the problem-framing process. Expanding on the long history of scientific work on uncerta…inty, the author distinguishes between uncertainty and ambiguity and proposes that uncertainty relates to a lack of information, while ambiguity exists because the problem solver lacks clarity in regard to what the relevant variables and their functional relationships are. The author argues that recognizing the difference between these two concepts is important since they relate to distinct problem-solving processes, requiring different kinds of organizational support. By framing uncertainty and ambiguity as selectable rather than given variables, the author argues that technical problem-solving processes and their outcomes depend on the fit between the uncertainty and ambiguity levels chosen, the resources available, and the organizational context. This book offers a new way to approach technical problem-solving, by showing that the problems engineers face, and the solutions they develop, are shaped by the way these problems are framed.
