Title: A decision rationale management system: Capturing, reusing, and managing the reasons for decisions

Abstract: "This thesis identifies the needs for capturing and managing decision rationales, articulates the concept of a decision rationale management system that meet these needs, and presents a computer system that implements the concept.

Capturing and managing decision rationales, i.e. the deliberations leading to decisions, can bring about many benefits. The rationales can then be used to support decision making, can be shared among decision makers, and can be reused for similar decisions. A decision rationale management system, i.e. a system that captures and manages decision rationales to provide these benefits, requires three major components: a language for representing elements of rationales, a method of using the language to capture the rationales, and a set of services that use the captured rationales to support decision making.

This thesis articulates a model of decision rationales and uses it to develop DRL, a language for representing the elements in this model. The thesis also presents SIBYL, a computer system that helps people to capture rationales in DRL by providing a number of interface features intended to reduce the overhead associated with explicit representations. Using the rationales captured in DRL, SIBYL provides computational decision services, such as retrieving useful rationales from past decisions, maintaining dependencies among the various elements of rationales, and keeping track of multiple decision states. These services realize the benefits of a structured representation of rationales, and provide further motivation for capturing rationales in DRL. "
