	Streamlining the Decision Cycle Through Collaborative Decision Management
		Research shows that almost 80% of the time currently spent in the decision cycle is in the information-gathering and collaboration phases, and little time is spent on the actual decision and even less for action.
		Decision portals provide the technology to truly decentralize and optimize the decision-making process throughout an enterprise and the extended enterprise.
		Decision portals create this opportunity by both identifying relevant experts and then making it easy to share a decision workspace with them.

	"The Development of a Class in Electronic News Gathering"
		Students were told that at most stations the news director would be ultimately responsible for news content, but that in many situations would try to stay out of the day-to-day news decision making process.
		Studies have found that broadcast news employers often prefer college graduates who have relevant and practical skills in gathering, writing, and reporting news, as well as video equipment skills; while at the same time giving high ratings to a broad liberal arts education.
		The concept of enterprise reporting was reinforced by making every student, not just news reporters and producers, turn in "story submission forms." The story submission forms indicate a story slug, description, and possible contact names and phone numbers.

	response to attack on myself & Tom Bee
		The Gathering was recorded in 1999 the same way it was recorded in the previous 8 years, with a variety of recording assistants, with me at the decision making level regarding the recording, mastering, and finishing processes in all but one of those years.
		I will say that as of the moment that I was informed by Tom Bee that the Gathering 1999 CD had received a Grammy™ nomination, Herman and his family were invited in writing, by me, to participate in all Grammy™ activities from that moment forward.
		The Gathering has claimed that they’ve contacted me; never, ever in the history of the Gathering have I been contacted about the recording of the Gathering, by the Gathering.

	Agent-Based Information Gathering
		This work represents the culmonation of many years of effort, integrating technologies developed in several different areas of study research, including planning, information extraction, scheduling and decision making.
		This approach, called Cooperative Information Gathering (CIG), involves concurrent and asynchronous access and composition of associated information spread across a network of information servers by a group of intelligent agents.
		We are examining the features of problems that point to the need for a DPS approach, and the benefits of viewing information gathering as distributed problem solving (which subsumes distributed processing).

		He posits that this problem "probably explains why organizations tend to institutionalize the separation of their information-gathering and decision-making branchs"--as in the development of staff organizations in the military.
		Doerner, a professor of Psychology at the University of Bamberg (Germany) uses empirical methods to study human decision-making processes, with an emphasis on understanding the ways in which these processes can go wrong.
		The subjects who fail at this game, Doerner finds, are those who apply rigid, context-insensitive rules...such as "always keep the units widely deployed" or "always keep the units concentrated" rather than making these decisions flexibly.

	Jumping from the Hot Pot: Notes on Democracy in a Technological Age
		Decision-making has at least three stages -- data-gathering, evaluation, and selection.
		In making decisions with considerable societal implications, experts have a vital contribution to make in both the data-gathering and evaluation stages: They can say what they believe are the facts of the matter and the likely consequences of deciding the issue one way or the other.
		This stage is intrinsically values-driven, and the only question is who's values are going to drive it.

		The probability of making a Type II error is dependant upon the sample size, the producer's risk, and the sensitivity of measurement.

	SWOT Analysis for Participatory Research in the Pacific
		The case histories summarized in the preceding two sections of this report offer abundant examples of conflicts and constraints in the gathering, analysis, and use of environmental information for economic decision making.
		The ESCAP country and local case studies on "integrating Environmental Considerations into Economic Decision Making Processes" revealed a number of Pacific island countries and regional organizations that are in the experimental phase of improving the links between the local, national and regional levels.
		The greatest and most debilitating barrier in flow of information for sustainable decisions on resource use is the sharp divide between the colonial-imposed European government system, usually based almost entirely in one city, and the hundreds of small, isolated rural villages scattered on different islands or separated by difficult terrain.

	Public choice theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Public choice theory is a branch of economics that studies the decision-making behavior of voters, politicians and government officials from the perspective of economic theory, namely game theory and decision theory.
		Each voter is faced with an infinitesimally small probability that his vote will change the result of the elections, while gathering the relevant information necessary for a well-informed voting decision requires substantial time and effort.
		Therefore, the rational decision for each voter is to be generally ignorant of politics and perhaps even abstain from voting.
