Recent Developments in Information and Decision Processes

Excerpt from Recent Developments in Information and Decision Processes As originally announced, this symposium was to have had ten speak ers. The papers of all ten are included here, although only eight of them were actually presented at the conference. In addition, an extension of the highly pertinent extempore remarks of Dean Tribus are included. The two papers that were not presented were those of Prof. Robbins, who was not able to be present, and Prof. Harry H. Goode of The University of Michigan, who died suddenly shortly before the conference. His paper was completed by his colleagues, as explained therein. This volume is affectionately dedicated to his memory. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
