Decision Making in Systems Engineering and Management is a
comprehensive textbook that provides a logical process and
analytical techniques for fact-based decision making for the most
challenging systems problems. Grounded in systems thinking and
based on sound systems engineering principles, the systems
decisions process (SDP) leverages multiple objective decision
analysis, multiple attribute value theory, and value-focused
thinking to define the problem, measure stakeholder value, design
creative solutions, explore the decision trade off space in the
presence of uncertainty, and structure successful solution
implementation. In addition to classical systems engineering
problems, this approach has been successfully applied to a wide
range of challenges including personnel recruiting, retention, and
management; strategic policy analysis; facilities design and
management; resource allocation; information assurance; security
systems design; and other settings whose structure can be
conceptualized as a system.
