Call for Papers

Important decisions at all levels are based on a fundamental resource: knowledge. Improvement and innovation in organizations is done based on the analysis of previous experiences and external events that constitute the knowledge base. Having knowledge bases with historical data and trends helps predict behaviors and make decisions that provide competitive advantages.

In a knowledge society, organizations have managed to create alliances to share this resource and generate collaborative decisions that help strengthen them. Collaborative decisions collect the knowledge of business groups, supporting research and development in many productive sectors.

“Union make force”. Sharing knowledge ensures its retention and catalyzes the construction of this consensus. Organizations that share their knowledge collectively achieve better results according to decisions made based on a better information resource.

Our point of view in collaborative decision making is oriented towards improving the quality of the decision making process and better acceptance of choice. It is important to highlight that decisions made together lead to better acceptance. Thus, while decision making could be seen as a constructed model. For us, collaborative decision making is seen as the use of socio-technical means to improve the performance and acceptability of decision making.

Shared decision making is a central activity in many human activities. For example, sustainable decision-making is the task not only of governments and institutions, but also of society in general. Recognizing the urgent need for sustainability, we can argue that to achieve sustainable development, it must be considered as a decision-making strategy.

The location of knowledge in collaborative decision making should be considered, to the extent that knowledge sharing leads to improved collaborative decision making: a “static view” should be structured to obtain “collaborative knowledge.”

Knowledge plays an important role in individual decision making and we consider that for collaborative decision making, knowledge has to be shared. What is required is a better understanding of the nature of group work. Knowledge must be shared, but how do we share knowledge?

Decisioning 2024 is presented as the third workshop on Collaboration in knowledge discovery and decision making. It has had the support of six research teams from France, Argentina and Colombia in its organization, to explore the current frontier of knowledge and its applications in different areas related to knowledge discovery and decision making.

The format of this workshop is hybrid (in-person or virtual), and aims at discussion and exchange of knowledge between academia and industry members.

Decisioning 2024 invites presentations on the following topics. Articles that present original results on research, teaching and developments from industrial processes are welcome.
