the trial and error method. After many years of development and with the advancement of technology, programs like space travel and/or nuclear weapons for instance had to be first-time safe which made the fly-fix-fly approach unacceptable. I believe that this approach was made unacceptable because there was a lot of cost involved in actually developing and launching such programs and the advancement of technology such as a wind tunnel for instance which could actually test the aerodynamic capability

MANAGEMENT DECISION MAKING A major concern in management has been to understand and improve decision making. Various approaches have been proposed by psychologists, most based on a “divide-and-conquer” strategy. This strategy – also labeled “problem decomposition” – involves breaking a large decision problem into smaller parts. The idea is

Management is Frederick W. Taylor ( 1856 – 1915). He came from a mechanic in the US, who has made the positions as foreman, chief engineer, master engineer, with his extensive experience, he has analyzed the advocacy process (manipulation) of workers, research processes reasonable labor (with no duplicate operation takes less time and energy). That is the rationalization of labor, broadly defined as organized labor in a scientific way. With the work "Plant Management" (1903), Principles of scientific management

scientists are developing new algorithms and tools to improve the accuracy of the predictions. However, the first studies in this field were just based on direct observations, and they set the starting point for further research. According to Baer (1974), a good part of the research done in this area can be classified as behavioural studies related to sociopsychology rather than the direct influence of the constructed environment on pedestrian flows. Goffman (1963), for example, described a subconscious
