Decision Analysis: Fundamentals and Applications
About this audiobook
What Is Decision Analysis
The term "decision analysis" (DA) refers to the academic field that encompasses the theory, technique, and professional practice that are required to tackle significant decisions in an organized fashion. It is possible to prescribe a recommended course of action by applying the maximum expected-utility axiom to a well-formed representation of the decision. Additionally, decision analysis includes many procedures, methods, and tools for translating the formal representation of a decision and its corresponding recommendation into insight for the decision maker, as well as for other corporate and non-corporate stakeholders.
