A computer-based method for building a framework to be utilized in collaborative decision making related to a topic of interest is provided. The method includes defining a collaborative framework space in a memory to store data relating to the topic of interest, selecting individuals within a community of interest to be involved in the collaborative decision regarding the topic of interest, using at least one computer-based collaboration methodology to allow discussion and deliberation on the topic of interest within the community of interest, generating an argumentation tree based on the discussion and deliberation, iteratively refining the argumentation tree based on the discussion and deliberation within the community of interest until the argumentation tree describes a consensus decision related to the topic of interest. |
