This first-rate text concerns the theory and methodology of systems engineering as they relate to the evaluation of alternative courses of action and associated decision making. Topics include psychological value measurements, classical decision analysis, vector optimization theory, and noninteractive and interactive methods. 1983 edition.
The authors provide a uniformed framework for integrating the hierarchical and multiobjective approaches to large scale computer systems. They focus on three key aspects - theory, methodology and applications. The volume is useful as a teaching tool as each hierarchical concept is first introduced under single-objective conditions, before being ...
