Calligraphy fan: OR and Game Theory

 Haibo Wang visited and brought me a fan, with calligraphy from his dad in Chinese characters.


Alex Chan translates:

"What is written is “運籌帷幄 博弈天下”.   運籌 is logistics (運籌學 is operations research) 博弈is gaming (and 博弈論 is  game theory)." 

"And the translation for the whole phrase is something like: strategizing and gaming the world - this is how you might describe a general."
