Abstract

In our days, problems relating to decision making support in the information and analytical systems are caused mainly by the need to handle a large volume of diverse information and the occurrence of a great number of alternatives of alternatives and multi-objective criteria when choosing them. Application of ontological descriptions in the decision making support chain ensures the dynamic formation of corresponding sets of alternatives and criteria based on the properties of concepts of the domain areas for which relevant decisions are made. Inclusion of ontological models in the information and analytical system environment allows effectively apply a method of hierarchy analysis as a systematic procedure for hierarchic representation and analysis of elements which establish the core of a problem. In this case, validity of a decision depends entirely on the correctness and relevance of ontological domain model, while the objectivity of a method is ensured by fixing the transitive consistency of expert judgment, which eliminates subjectivity and supports the principle of impartiality and justice.
