A Conceptual View of the AGAP System: a GDSS for Project Analysis and Evaluation

Resumo

This paper presents the AGAP (Aid to Groups of Analysis and evaluation of Projects) system, a distributed GDSS (Group Decision Support System) allowing multiple decision makers to co-operate in the evaluation and selection of investment projects. The system has a state of the art set of economic measures that can be set as criteria for use in several multicriteria decision aid methods. It also tries to enhance the communications and data sharing during asynchronous group meetings. The system is described at a conceptual level, trying to capture and transmit a global view of it. No implementation details or usage operations are presented.
