An Interactive Computer Aiding System for Group Decision Making

Abstract

This report describes progress on work centered on the demonstration of an interactive computer aid for group decision making. The report includes; (1) a new sensitivity algorithm for decision tree analysis that incorporates information about individual differences in judgmental knowledge, (2) procedures for identifying and resolving utility conflicts, (3) a refined version of the group/machine and intermediator/machine interface and displays, (4) a preliminary problem scenario booklet to be used in the system's empirical evaluations, and (5) a report on the project's software development efforts. The next phase of the program will concentrate on the system's implementation, operational testing, and initial evaluation.
