Decision Analysis Using an Enumerative Approach
本文描述了一种基于计算机的枚举方法，用于在给定约束下生成多种可行方案，并作为决策支持系统提供排序后的备选方案，适用于介于简单评估与整数规划之间的场景。
A computer based, enumerative approach to decision making in a practical environment is described for circumstances where many feasible alternative plans can be generated within given constraints. The method lies between simple techniques for evaluating a few alternative plans and very general techniques such as integer programming, and has advantages over both of these approaches in certain cases. Its main use is as a decision support system, providing management with a range of ranked alternatives. The technique is embodied in a computer program which is used to give an example of how the method may be applied in practice.
