Sinopsis

It is quite an onerous task to edit the proceedings of a two week long institute with learned contributors from many parts of the world. All the same, the editorial team has found the process of refereeing and reviewing the contributions worthwhile and completing the volume has proven to be a satisfying task. In setting up the institute we had considered models and methods taken from a number of different disciplines. As a result the whole institute - preparing for it, attending it and editing the proceedings - proved to be an intense learning experience for us. Here I speak on behalf of the committee and the editorial team. By the time the institute took place, the papers were delivered and the delegates exchanged their views, the structure of the topics covered and their relative positioning appeared in a different light. In editing the volume I felt compelled to introduce a new structure in grouping the papers. The contents of this volume are organised in eight main sections set out below: 1 . Abstracts. 2. Review Paper. 3. Models with Multiple Criteria and Single or Multiple Decision Makers. 4. Use of Optimisation Models as Decision Support Tools. 5. Role of Information Systems in Decision Making: Database and Model Management Issues. 6. Methods of Artificial Intelligence in Decision Making: Intelligent Knowledge Based Systems. 7. Representation of Uncertainty in Mathematical Models and Knowledge Based Systems. 8. Mathematical Basis for Constructing Models and Model Validation.

Reseña del editor

This volume is based on the lectures presented by well-known experts at the NATO Advanced Study Institute on Mathematical Models for Decision Support held in Val d'Isere, France, July 26 - August 6, 1987. At the beginning the abstracts appear in a section of their own. This is followed by an extensive review paper which provides an overview of the major modeling issues in decision making. Thus, by first reading these two sections the readers may gain a fair glimpse of the contents of the remaining six sections of the volume. Researchers and practitioners interested in current Decision Support Systems issues and the directions in progress are the intended audience of this book. There is a particular emphasis on the adaptation of Artificial Intelligence techniques for use in decision making. Readers of this volume will find its structure and contents valuable and germane to their own field of study and research.
