Using System Dynamics as a Knowledge-Based Decision Making Paradigm

摘要

In this paper, we suggest a method of knowledge-based decision making using system dynamics, with an emphasis to strategic concerns. The proposed method transforms individual mental models into explicit knowledge by translating partial and implicit knowledge into an integrated knowledge model. The scenario-based test of the organized knowledge model enables decision-makers to understand the structure of the target problem and identify its basic cause, which facilitates effective decision-making.
