Experimental evaluation of a graphical display system to visualizing multiple criteria solutions

Article Abstract:

One of the major drawbacks of multiple criteria methods is the poor set of mechanisms for examining alternatives or solutions. Alternative solutions must be presented to the decision maker in a clear and concise way that makes it easy for the decision maker to analyze their various tradeoffs. A graphical display system (GRADS) that provides multiobjective solutions is presented. GRADS permits the decision maker to analyze the tradeoffs between the objectives from a given set of finite alternative solutions.

An application-based agenda for incorporating OR into an AI design environment for facility design

Article Abstract:

The integration of operations research/management science with artificial intelligence methods was proposed to develop a complete, computer-based design support system. This resulted in a model that concentrates on the designer's requirements and behaviors and the contextual elements of design that have been disregarded by traditional methodologies. Moreover, the model allows for a knowledge-based system structure that provides interactive assistance.

SIMPSON: an intelligent assistant for short-term manufacturing scheduling

Article Abstract:

The Short-term Intelligent Manufacturing Planning Support for Nuclear (SIMPSON) fuel tubes system is an intelligent decision support system that incorporates a process for modeling day-to-day scheduling decisions at the Westinghouse Commercial Nuclear Fuels Div., Specialty Metals Plant in Blairsville, PA. The fielding and maintenance of SIMPSON, combined with a bigger scheduling system called MULTEX, at the plant is described.
