Documentation of Decision-Aiding Software: Introductory Guide

Abstract

The development of decision-aiding computer software addresses the need for practical and useful decision-aiding methodology for Defense decision makers and embodies the fundamental concepts of decision analysis. This manual briefly discusses the need for decision aids, identifies seven decision aids that were chosen for documentation, and describes the nature of the software documentation available to prospective users of the aids. The documentation has been written independently of computer and programming language and therefore can be applied to the development of software that implements an operational version of the aids on any host computer using any computer language.
