Dynamic Control: "What can Rocket Science teach Actuaries?"
Tuesday 07 September 2010 at 18:00
Staple Inn
James Orr
James Orr will give a presentation looking at the basic principles of control theory and a variety of applications, including financial control, "rocket science" and psychological well-being, to draw parallels and potential insights applicable to the work of actuaries. The objective of the talk will be to entertain and educate, and it is hoped that the audience will enter into the spirit of a wider-fields discussion and share their own views on how to manage complex systems, where uncertainty and subjective judgements play a key role.
