Decision Making and Decision Aids
1996Systems can be described in terms of inputs transformed into outputs, as a process of fulfilment of a purpose, or the pursuit of a goal. The last is the equivalent of decision making and is a basic human activity. As a scientific area it is called praxeology and includes both normative and descriptive decision theory.

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 2012Abstract Recently, software maintenance was transformed into a major preoccupation on improving the software performances. Software maintenance depends on customer or user requirements. A requirement is translating into a minor change, but it is more costly to implement than to anticipate.

Utility companies — and the public utility commissions regulating them — make technology selections where multiple criteria must be considered. In the past, utilities often ignored environmental and other externalities, selecting resources which, in effect, “assign[ed] the residual … externality costs a value of zero” (Ottinger, 1990, p. 15).

The methods we have presented so far have been based on the domination relation. This relation (which we can define in various ways: Pareto domination or lexicographic domination, for example) allows us to “filter” elements of a set, and to just keep all the elements we can compare themselves.

Abstract Healthcare providers and patients need guidance to reach a shared understanding of what medicine has to offer. However, current tools to provide this guidance—clinical practice guidelines and decision aids alike—face significant challenges. Their production is time-consuming and resource demanding and they are often outdated due

A comparative evaluation of decision-aiding approaches requires that alternative approaches first be identified and differentiated. Characterizing and distinguishing among approaches, however, is not an easy task. There are two main sources of difficulty.
