Forecasting and Predicting in Engineering Tasks

摘要

The work analyzes the tasks of solving problems, which consist in determining the events that may occur through some time after the completion of the process of solving the problem. One of the possible classifications of such tasks is proposed. The analysis of differences between different types of tasks is carried out, features of implementing the processes of their resolution are revealed. The paper considers in detail such types of tasks as prognosis and prediction. Differences are described between these processes with each other and the characteristics that determine each of the processes. The comparison of various types of processes in the overall forecasting process is presented.
