This paper presents an overview and a detailed description of the key logic steps and mathematical-physics framework behind the development of practical algorithms for seismic exploration derived from the inverse scattering series. There are both significant symmetries and critical subtle differences between the forward scattering series construction and the inverse scattering series processing of seismic events. These similarities and differences help explain the efficiency and effectiveness of different inversion objectives. The inverse series performs all of the tasks associated with inversion using the entire wavefield recorded on the measurement surface as input. However, certain terms in the series act as though only one specific task, and no other task, existed. When isolated, these terms constitute a task-specific subseries. We present both the rationale for seeking and methods of identifying uncoupled task-specific subseries that accomplish: (1) free-surface multiple removal; (2) internal multiple attenuation; (3) imaging primaries at depth; and (4) inverting for earth material properties. A combination of forward series analogues and physical intuition is employed to locate those subseries. We show that the sum of the four task-specific subseries does not correspond to the original inverse series since terms with coupled tasks are never considered or computed. Isolated tasks are accomplished sequentially and, after each is achieved, the problem is restarted as though that isolated task had never existed. This strategy avoids choosing portions of the series, at any stage, that correspond to a combination of tasks, i.e., no terms corresponding to coupled tasks are ever computed. This inversion in stages provides a tremendous practical advantage. The achievement of a task is a form of useful information exploited in the redefined and restarted problem; and the latter represents a critically important step in the logic and overall strategy. The individual subseries are analysed and their strengths, limitations and prerequisites exemplified with analytic, numerical and field data examples.
