OODA Loop
The OODA Loop is a decision-action framework proposed by U.S. Air Force Colonel John Boyd, consisting of four cyclically iterated phases: Observe, Orient, Decide, and Act. Its central concept is that accelerating the decision cycle confers competitive advantage. Originally applied to military strategy, it has since been extended to business management, competitive sports, and artificial intelligence agent architectures.
