Abstract :
This paper discusses a novel approach for the support of decisions on alternative architectural concepts. Multiple objectives for cost and performance are applied. Analytical performance models have been extended by fuzzy arithmetic. Known analytical efficiency measures are generalized by a fuzzy multiobjective decision making approach. The proposed modeling technique has been implemented by a new tool, the VSP Decision Program, which flexibly supports the high-level specification and evaluation using various performance models
