Logical Decisions - Classweb

So, for this example, you only need to define the Performance goal,
which will consist of measures of power and fuel economy.
We will define the goals in the Goals Hierarchy view. This the
other window you see when you start LDW. Initially, it shows a
box labeled "Overall" for the overall goal and an oval labeled "New
Measure" for the single evaluation measure in the new analysis.
First select the Goals Hierarchy window. If you have closed the
goals hierarchy window, you can open another one with the
View::Goals Hierarchy option. Just select the default options in
the dialog box for now by clicking OK.
Then you will change the name of the "Overall" goal to "Buy the
best Truck." Here’s how:
1. Double click on the box for the "Overall" goal
2. LDW will display its properties dialog box.
3. Change the "Name" field to "Buy The Best Truck" and
click OK.
Next we will add the "Performance" goal. We will do this with the
Add a Goal button. Here’s how:
1. Click the “Buy the Best Truck” box so that it is highlighted
in green.
2. Click the Add a Goal button.
3. LDW will add the new goal under the active goal (“Buy
the Best Truck”
4. Change the “Name” field to "Performance" and click
OK.
Defining Measures
You have now defined the alternatives and goals for your decision.
Next you will define the evaluation measures. The measures will
describe how well each alternative meets one of the goals. The
measures you will add are Price, Power, Styling and Fuel
Economy.
