Window of opportunity

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Critical windows in emergency medicine
Illustration of a short gamma-ray burst, a transient astronomical event caused by a collapsing star.[1]

A window of opportunity, also called a margin of opportunity or critical window, is a period of time during which some action can be taken that will achieve a desired outcome. Once this period is over, or the "window is closed", the specified outcome is no longer possible.[2]

Transcription

Examples

Windows of opportunity include:

Biology and medicine

Economics

  • Market opportunities, in which one may be positioned to take advantage of a gap in a particular market,[5][6] the timing of which may depend on the activities of customers, competitors, and other market context factors[7]
  • Limited time offer, a critical window for consumers that is artificially imposed (or even falsely implied) as a marketing tactic to encourage action[8]

Other examples

Characteristics

Timing

The timing and length of a critical window may be well known and predictable (as in planetary transits) or more poorly understood (as in medical emergencies or climate change). In some cases, there may be multiple windows during which a goal can be achieved, as in the case of space launch windows.

In situations with very brief or unpredictable windows of opportunity, automation may be employed to take advantage of these windows, as in algorithmic trading[14] and time-domain astronomy.[15] Real-time computing systems can guarantee responses on the order of milliseconds or less.[16]

Costs

In some time-critical situations, failure to act may entail an increasing cost over time, or a decreasing probability over time of achieving the desired outcome. In real-time computing systems, this may be represented by time-utility functions.
