RT Conference Proceedings SR 00 A1 Makowski, M. T1 Integrated analysis of complex problems in model-based support for policy making YR 2005 FD 8th-10th August 2005 SP 3574 OP 3579 K1 Data-base management systems; Decision support systems; Environment; Integrated model analysis; Large scale optimization; Modeling systems and languages; Structured modeling AB Making rational policy decisions for complex problems requires comprehensive analyses of relations between decisions and the consequences resulting from their implementations. Such relations can be represented by various mathematical models, each having an infinite number of solutions of the decision problem. The paper presents the requirements for the modeling process, discusses diversified methods of model analysis in more detail, and outlines open scientific challenges.
