✦ Synopsis

This paper considers the assignment of scores to research output items, such as articles, books, contributions to conference proceedings, doctoral dissertations, etc., under four distribution criteria: the advancement of pure and applied scientific research, the advancement of innovative problem solving, the dissemination of scientific knowledge, and the coverage of the cost of the research. These scores are to be used in the allocation of research funds to the faculties of a university. The present paper describes the experiments carried out within the framework of the Decision Analysis and Support Project of the International Institute of Applied Systems Analysis, Laxenburg, Austria. It summarizes the vivid discussions triggered by the experiment, and it also presents the results of an additional experiment.
