Abstract
Robustness Analysis (RA) is a problem structuring method for flexible plann ing. This paper presents a revised definition of RA which is based on earli er presentations of RA as well as new results derived from empirical resear ch. This gaper first identifies the basic concepts that are necessary for a rigorous definition of RA and relationships between these concepts. On thi s foundation, this paper constructs new definitions of robustness score and discusses their uses.
