This paper extends standard agency theoretic models to explicitly take into account the presence of multiple criteria at the agent level. Two possible approaches for this extension are discussed. In the first approach, we consider only the minimum information that the principal might posses...

In diesem Beitrag werden unterschiedliche Ansätze zur graphischen Darstellung von Datenwerten, Präferenzrelationen und kardinalen Bewertungen in entscheidungsunterstützenden Systemen für Probleme bei mehrfacher Zielsetzung vorgestellt. Neben der Darstellung der einzelnen Ansätze wird auch...

Hierarchische Kennzahlensysteme stellen eine bedeutende konzeptuelle Grundlage für Management- Informationssysteme dar. In dieser Arbeit wird ein bisher unberücksichtigter Aspekt der Abweichungsanalyse in derartigen Kennzahlensystemen aufgegriffen: die Konsistenz der als signifikant...

Decision theoretic models of group decision processes usually assume a given set of alternatives, about which the decision has to take place. In realistic group decision situations, however, alternatives are often not specified a priori, but are created during the group process from different...

This paper discusses the problem of estimating aspiration or reference levels in criteria space from choices between alternatives characterized by multiple criteria. Several methods for such estimations are developed and compared, taking into account both solution quality and computational...

The paper introduces a new method for the graphical representation of multicriteria decision problems with discrete sets of alternatives. The approach proposed here extends projection techniques based on principal component analysis by incorporating information about preferences between...
