Theories of Decision Making

Problems in Decision Making

59
Modern Quantitative Techniques of Decision Making
Linear programming : It is based on the assumption that there exist a linear relationship between the variables. For Example: With the help of linear equation, optimum combination of cost, time and utilization of time can be compared. The main object of this techniques is to either maximize benefit or to minimizes cost 4/22/2017
60
2. Probability Theory This statistical device is based on the assumption that certain things are likely to happen in future depending on assumed probabilities. Ex. Pay-off matrices, Decision trees. 4/22/2017
61
3.Queueing Theory It is based on the assumption that although delays are costly, eliminating them may be even more costly. This techniques may be used in service organisations hospitals and banks 4/22/2017
62
4.Simulation For example : Instead of studying and analyzing transportation system of Chennai in a real life, its models can be prepared and real solution can be simulated to it 4/22/2017

CONTROLLING 4/22/2017
74
The Control Process Establish objectives and standards.
Measure actual performance. Compare results with objectives and standards. Take necessary action. 4/22/2017
75
Establish Objectives and Standards
There are two types of standards: Output Standards - measures performance results in terms of quantity, quality, cost, or time. Input Standards - measures work efforts that go into a performance task. 4/22/2017
76
Measuring Actual Performance
Measurements must be accurate enough to spot deviations or variances between what really occurs and what is most desired. Without measurement, effective control is not possible. 4/22/2017
77
Comparing Results with Objectives and Standards
The comparison of actual performance with desired performance establishes the need for action. Ways of making such comparisons include: Historical / Relative / Engineering Benchmarking 4/22/2017
