The field of decision analysis covers a wide range of domains and disciplines and for this reason it is useful to define clearly the terms used to avoid misinterpretation. For this reason we have included in this forum section "Glossary of terms" to provide descriptions and definitions of the terms used in the other forum sections, in documents, audio-visuals and web-based documents so as to clarify their meaning and context. The Glossary of terms is relevant to everyone visiting this site or using documentation released by the DAI, A Boolean Society or the George Boole Foundation. This page is "work in progress" and will be updated as we introduce additional terms.
The first section will be posted in mid-April, 2010.
