These users are not necessarily located at the same sites neither belong to the same organizations, but must cooperate. Spatial data is used to help user making decision in this context. Data is updated in parallel, dependi...

This framework can be used to integrate findings of traditional choice psychology, neuropsychology, brain lesion studies, and functional neuroimaging. Decis...

A significant application area of the decision-making theory is the control theory. Most of the applications of t...
