Abstract
There is no room for error in making managerial decisions in today's global business environment marked by mergers, acquisitions, and increasing economic instability. In order to succeed in this ever so demanding, fast pace business environment, managers need integrated and intelligent information systems capable of supporting them throughout the decision-making lifecycle, which starts with structuring a problem from a given set of symptoms and ends with providing the information needed to make the decision. In this manuscript, we report on a collaborative research effort whose aim has been to fill this need by developing novel concepts and to demonstrate the viability of these concepts within an advanced modeling environment.
