Logical Decisions - Classweb

an analysis are included in exactly one MUF, as are all of the goals
that have their own MUF. Goals that do not have their own MUF
do not appear explicitly in any other MUF.
Under each goal is a line for each of the goal's members. The line
for each member includes the "small k" scaling constant for that
member in the MUF it belongs to. The Big K scaling constant for a
goal plus the small k scaling constants for the lower level goals
and measures in the goal's MUF uniquely define the formula for
the MUF. See Section 9 and the Appendix for more information
on how the scaling constants define a MUF.
Goals that do not have their own MUF (such as the Quality goal in
the figure) are not included explicitly in the MUF of the goal they
belong to. The scaling constant on the line for that goal (0.2430 for
the Quality goal) is simply the sum of the scaling constants of the
goal's members (Company, FCC Certification, etc., for the Quality
goal).
SUF Formulas
The SUF Formulas display lets you view the scaling constants that
define the Single-measure Utility Functions (SUFs) for the
measures for the active preference set.
You can view the SUF Formulas table by selecting the
Review::Weights::SUF Formulas option. When you select it, LDW
displays a table like the one in Figure 8-14.
