The literature in the field of multicriteria decision aid (MCDA) proposes algorithms and methods that are acknowledged and used in real world decision aid processes. These techniques provide useful solutions to complex decision problems which involve several, often conflicting evaluation criteria. Several such methods and algorithms have been implemented and are available as separate software solutions. However, as they were developed in an uncoordinated way, they lack fundamental interoperability features.
The Decision Deck project therefore aims at collaboratively developing Open Source software tools implementing MultiCriteria Decision Aid (MCDA) techniques which are meant to support complex decision aid processes. One of the main features of these software solutions are that they are interoperable in order to create a coherent ecosystem.
The Decision Deck Consortium, a french non profit association, steers and manages the project along the lines of a <manifesto.html>`_. It is headed by an administration board. The consortium is among other in charge of organising the bi-annual workshops of the project.
The Decision Deck Consortium was officially born on November 25, 2008 as it appears the official declaration (#1390) published in the French Journal Officielle de la République Française p.6301 (see Extract (280.36 Kb)).
