| Abstract: | Decision support systems are of many kinds depending on the models and
techniques employed in them. Multiple criteria decision making
techniques constitute an important class of DSS with unique software
requirements. This paper stresses the importance of interactive MCDM
methods since these facilitate learning through all stages of the
decision making process. We first describe some features of Multiple
Criteria Decision Support Systems ( MCDSSs) that distinguish them from
classical DSSs. We then outline a software architecture for a MCDSS
which has three basic components: a Dialog Manager, an MCDM Model
Manager, and a Data Manager. We describe the interactions that occur
between these three software components in an integrated MCDSS and
outline a design for the Data Manager which is based on a concept of
levels of data abstraction. |
