Cone of Uncertainty Bibliography

Herding Cats

I work in a domain where the CoU is baked into the Integrated Program Performance Management (IPPM) processes flowed down from the buyer, in this case, the Federal Government. The CoU paradigm defines the needed reduction in uncertainty is some performance metric. IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management , 57 (4), pp.

Managing in Presence of Uncertainty

Herding Cats

Let's say you're the project or program manager of a large complex system. We cannot escape these two uncertainties - reducible and irreducible - and must learn how to manage in the presence of these uncertainties. Is each of these measures being met for the planned cost at the planned time? . Abstracted from [3].

Start with Principles, Not Personal Anecdotes

Herding Cats

Here's an extract from "Chapter 8: Human Behavior and Complexity," Terry Cooke-Davies, in Aspects of Complexity: Managing Projects in a Complex World. This is a cautionary tale for those listening to the #NoEstimates advocates, where anecdotes of bad management are used in an attempt to replace established principles of business management.

Risk interaction within systems and subsystems, between functional and physical elements, can also be modeled with DSM. DSM models interacting risks in a graphical representation produce numerical simulations of the risk and impacts on the probability of program success. Traditional risk models cannot model loops.
