Minitrack: Multi-criteria Decision Analysis and Support Systems (Decision Analytics, Mobile Services and Service Science Track)

Most decisions are based on multiple criteria, pursuing multiple, often conflicting objectives. The field of multi-criteria decision-making deals with theory and solution approaches directly involving multiple decision criteria. This minitrack solicits papers dealing with decision support for all types of multi-criteria decision problems. Case studies, papers focusing on specific types of decision settings, heuristic approaches applying information technology, design of methods for automating parts of the decision making process, as well as papers focusing on the concepts and larger issues involved in providing information systems support to such decision problems are welcomed. The common thread is the explicit consideration of multiple decision criteria.

Possible topics for this minitrack may include:

· Success factors for MCDSS

· The role of the decision-maker in effective multi-criteria decision support

· Case studies of multi-criteria decision support

· Design of technology for specific aspects or phases of multi-criteria decision support

· Decision support for project selection

· Decision support for specific applications domains (e.g. health care)

· Classifications of decision problems and solution technology

· Tools and techniques for multi-criteria portfolio selection

· Solution approaches to special types of decision problems involving conflicting objectives

· Quality and types of data in multi-criteria decision support
