| Abstract: | Often complex decision problems requiring decision aids, such as a Decision Support System (DSS), do not have solution procedures that can generate an optimal solution in a realistic time period. This has led to the specification of heuristic solution procedures. However, the quality of the solution obtained using a heuristic in specific instances can be uncertain an may be open to debate. One approach to increase the confidence in the quality of the obtained solution is to use the triangulation approach recommended and often used in the social sciences. |
