Using Multicriteria Decision-Making to Take into Account the Situation in System Engineering
نویسندگان
چکیده
All Software Engineering (SE) processes include steps where several alternatives call for decisions. However, in many cases, the choice is intuitive and thereafter hazardous with unpredictable consequences. On the other side, the operational research domain has produced many methods that could be adequately used in these situations. Using these methods should facilitate the decision making activity by considering specific SE situations. However, no work has been done to understand how, when, or which of these methods could be used in SE. This paper describes how multicriteria methods could be applied to consider the situation in the SE.
