Method Detail

dilemmas

public ServiceCall<Dilemma> dilemmas(Problem problem)

Returns a dilemma that contains the Problem and a Resolution. The Problem contains a set of options and objectives. The Resolution contains a set of optimal options, their analytical characteristics, and by default their representation on a 2D space.

Here is an example of how to call the Tradeoff Analytics service with a Problem:

 TradeoffAnalytics service = new TradeoffAnalytics();
 service.setUsernameAndPassword("USERNAME", "PASSWORD");
 Problem problem = new Problem(); // create the options and objectives here
 Dilemma dilemma = service.dilemmas(problem, false);
 

Parameters:

problem - the decision problem

Returns:

the dilemma

dilemmas

public ServiceCall<Dilemma> dilemmas(Problem problem,

Returns a dilemma that contains the Problem and a Resolution. The Problem contains a set of options and objectives. The Resolution contains a set of optimal options, their analytical characteristics, and by default their representation on a 2D space.

Here is an example of how to call the Tradeoff Analytics service with a Problem:

 TradeoffAnalytics service = new TradeoffAnalytics();
 service.setUsernameAndPassword("USERNAME", "PASSWORD");
 Problem problem = new Problem(); // create the options and objectives here
 Dilemma dilemma = service.dilemmas(problem, false);
 

Parameters:

problem - the decision problem

generateVisualization - if true the Dilemma contains information to generate visualization

Returns:

the decision problem

                                     java.lang.Boolean generateVisualization,
                                     java.lang.Boolean findPreferableOptions)

Returns a dilemma that contains the Problem and a Resolution. The Problem contains a set of options and objectives. The Resolution contains a set of optimal options, their analytical characteristics, and by default their representation on a 2D space.

Here is an example of how to call the Tradeoff Analytics service with a Problem:

 TradeoffAnalytics service = new TradeoffAnalytics();
 service.setUsernameAndPassword("USERNAME", "PASSWORD");
 Problem problem = new Problem(); // create the options and objectives here
 Dilemma dilemma = service.dilemmas(problem, false, true);
 

Parameters:

problem - the decision problem

generateVisualization - if true the Dilemma contains information to generate visualization

findPreferableOptions - if true the Dilemma includes a refined subset of best candidate options that will most likely satisfy the greatest number of users.

Returns:

the decision problem
