OPEN ISSUE
In this open issue we have papers representative of design viewed at several levels, from the very specific and narrowly defined level represented in Chyutin's paper to the broad, theoretical scope of Prost's. Specific technical issues within the area of decision making are represented in Rusin and in the exchange between Wise and Grant.

One very desirable thing can be seen …
