Decision Engineering
An emerging approach for decision making.
Decision making have become a central aspect of human activities. Current world have reached today’s development level because of better decisions are made. However, many organizations still make poor decisions due to several reasons.
- Complex and competitive environment.
- Increasing global scope.
- Growing number of independent actors.
In this scenario, decision engineering is emerging as a set of best practices intended to make the best possible decisions. It is intended to become a worldwide common methodology for making decisions.
Decision engineering applies an engineering approach, using the following tools and techniques:
- Cost Engineering and Estimating
- Soft Computing Techniques
- Classical Optimization and Simulation Techniques
- Knowledge capture and reuse
- Knowledge engineering
- Business intelligence
- Collaborative Technology and Concurrent Engineering,
- Risk Analysis.
- Mind mapping,
- Conceptual graphs,
- Semantic networks.
- Intuitive thinking,
- Inductive reasoning
- Pattern recognition
- Business decision map
