Creating a decision diagram

To implement your decision, you create a decision diagram.
The first step when you create a decision model is to implement the architecture of your decision by building a decision diagram. A diagram is composed of the following elements:
Decision nodes
Decision nodes represent the decision that you want to automate and its supporting subdecisions. They contain a decision logic that defines how each decision is made.
Input data nodes
Input data nodes represent the data that decisions depend on to determine their output. They are associated with a data type that defines the kind of data that they can hold.
Function nodes
Function nodes represent values that are computed from other decision models.
Prediction nodes
Prediction nodes represent values that are computed from predictive models.
Links
Links represent:
  • The dependency relationship between the end decision and the subdecisions and input data it depends on.
  • The invocation of a function node or prediction node by a decision node.
