It is quite an onerous task to edit the proceedings of a two week
long institute with learned contributors from many parts of the
world. All the same, the editorial team has found the process of
refereeing and reviewing the contributions worthwhile and
completing the volume has proven to be a satisfying task. In
setting up the institute we had considered models and methods taken
from a number of different disciplines. As a result the whole
institute - preparing for it, attending it and editing the
proceedings - proved to be an intense learning experience for us.
Here I speak on behalf of the committee and the editorial team. By
the time the institute took place, the papers were delivered and
the delegates exchanged their views, the structure of the topics
covered and their relative positioning appeared in a different
light. In editing the volume I felt compelled to introduce a new
structure in grouping the papers. The contents of this volume are
organised in eight main sections set out below: 1 . Abstracts. 2.
Review Paper. 3. Models with Multiple Criteria and Single or
Multiple Decision Makers. 4. Use of Optimisation Models as Decision
Support Tools. 5. Role of Information Systems in Decision Making:
Database and Model Management Issues. 6. Methods of Artificial
Intelligence in Decision Making: Intelligent Knowledge Based
Systems. 7. Representation of Uncertainty in Mathematical Models
and Knowledge Based Systems. 8. Mathematical Basis for Constructing
Models and Model Validation.
