Abstract
The Generic Multi-Attribute Analysis (GMAA) System is
a Decision Support System (DSS) based on an additive
multi-attribute utility model that accounts for incomplete
information concerning the inputs. The system is intended
to allay many of the operational difficulties involved in
the Decision Analysis (DA) cycle, which can be divided
into four steps: structuring the problem (which includes
specifying objectives, building a value hierarchy and
establishing attributes for the lowest-level objectives);
identifying the feasible alternatives, their impact and
uncertainty (if necessary); quantifying preferences (which
includes the assessment of the component attribute
utilities as well as the value trade-offs); evaluating
strategies and performing Sensitivity Analysis (SA).
