Abstract :
Partner selection is an important and complex decision problem for virtual enterprises. We present the Tenderee Decision Support System based on goal ontology, which adopts distributed constraint satisfaction and multi-attribute utility theory to solve and optimize the problem, and provides powerful decision support capability by human-machine interaction in the aspects of setup and maintenance of goal, selection and optimization partner
