MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE RISK IN DECISION MAKING PROCESS
Keywords:
decision-making process, maximum permissible risk, minimax criteria, an algorithm to lead the system with a maximum permissible risk, leadership of the systemAbstract
In the article it is analyzed the opportunity to lead the system with maximum permissible risk, as a part of the chain of interrelated notions: goals, ways, means, and risk; it is determined, that risk-taking increases the adaptability of the system, opens the system for innovations, allows achieving established goals by less means and more simple ways; it is stated that location in the sensitive framework of stepwise of taking of maximum permissible risk, according to the minimax criteria, makes the system secure; it is argued that maximum permissible risk in decision-making process reduces the overall risk of system functionality; it is proposed the algorithm to lead the system with a maximum permissible risk as a theoretical and practical model to lead the system effectively.
