I first heard about this term when I heard Craig Larman speaking about it. You can find references to it in his book on Agile & Iterative Development - A Manager' guide
See www.craiglarman.com
Thanks
Thanks for the excellent list of resources on the Cone of Uncertainty. Unfortunately I have nothing to add but I did reference this useful list at my blog: http://ravenyoung.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!17376F4C11A91E0E!3384.entry
Love your stuff - keep it up!
You might also be interested in David Gilbert's blog entry from June 2006, "Predicting the Path of the Storm" which also talks about hurricane predicting and project management. That's where I first came across "The Cone of Uncertainty".
