Abstract

In this chapter, we present the theory of Habitual Domain (HD) and the associated Human Behaviour Mechanism from which we derive a decision model that incorporates and integrates all the ten decision parameters analysed in Chap. 2, and their dynamics and interaction. We also show that this decision model is an adequate tool for formulating and solving DMCS problems. Moreover, we introduce the concepts of acceptable and wonderful solutions that we use as solutions to DMCS problems. Further, we present eight behavioural tendencies that can help solve DMCS problems.
