发明名称 Method and system for portfolio analysis and decision support using polar area graphs
摘要 In a data processing system that executes a program of instructions, a method for displaying decision options for use in decision making on a display screen of a computer. The method comprises the steps of: displaying a polar graph on a display screen, wherein the polar graph has a plurality of sectors representing a plurality of decision criteria determinative of the decision option, and wherein each sector consists of a part of the polar graph bounded by two radii and a line segment subtended by the two radii, and wherein the importance of a decision criterion to the decision option is indicated by the angle between the radii forming the sector of the polar graph corresponding to the decision criterion, and wherein the merit of a decision criterion is indicated by the area of the sector corresponding to the decision criterion, and wherein the merit of the decision option is indicated by the total area of the plurality of sectors; calculating the merit of the decision option; and, displaying the merit of the decision option on the display screen, thereby enabling a user to make a decision concerning the decision option. A data processing system, computer program product, and integrated circuit product are provided wherein each has stored therein sequences of instructions which when executed cause the method described to be performed.
