A study on the pattern method for the decision process in the public system

TLDR: The PATTERN method is applied for the decision process in the public system and a theoretical framework is developed to construct the relevance tree from the scenario writing through the quantitative evaluation.

Abstract: In this paper, I try to apply the PATTERN method(Planning Assistance Through Technical Evaluation of Relevance Number)for the decision process in the public system and attempt to construct a theoretical framework to explain the PATTERN method procedures.In this way, the PATTERN method procedures are to understand the public problem and solve it by three steps as follows.(a)To write the scenario from the public's point of view.(b)To build up the relevance tree from the content of the scenario.(c)To make the quantitative evaluation on the relevance tree.From these steps is developed a theoretical framework to construct the relevance tree from the scenario writing. At the same time, the multistage decision theory is applied to this relevance tree through the quantitative evaluation.This method is obtained by the consensus of the public opinions. Meanwhile, a decision making can be made in the public problem.Finally, this method is also applied to perform a case study of“the Public Problem of the Industrial Waste Treatment Planning”. I made a summary of it and examined its result.
