Abstract
Processes in value creating systems are compromised by exogenous disturbances. As a consequence, a recurrent revision of the schedules determining the processes is necessary. Three streams of evaluating such a so-called dynamic decision situation are subject of scientific interest. Planning Nervousness or Planning Stability addresses the validity of once made process decisions. Special attention is paid to keep the negative impacts of the revision of decisions small (Chapter 7). Flexibilityrelated research is particularly interested in the question if it is possible to generate a feasible (e.g. executable) update of a process (Chapter 6). Robustness extends the concept of flexibility and adjoins the consideration of cost variation and benefit variation to the analysis of flexibility issues.
