✦ Synopsis


The paper designs and measures ¯exibility as the availability of a dynamic system in an uncertain environment. After a brief discussion of the literature, ¯exibility is de®ned essentially as the service degree of a system's dynamic technology. As a further step, this measure is extended to incorporate a system's planning, forecasting, and implementation ability. To obtain a deeper insight into the complex nature of the measure the design of ¯exibility is discussed within the framework of hierarchical planning.
