## Abstract

An electronic decision system is provided. The electronic decision system has: an interaction apparatus configured to display a graphical interface, thereby retrieving multiple option values selected by a user; a database; and a decision module configured to retrieve at least one historical option value corresponding to the user and the multiple option values, wherein the decision module further determines a determination result according to the multiple option values, the at least one historical option value, and the at least one scenario criterion, and displays the determination result on the graphical interface of the interaction apparatus.

## Claims

### Claim 1

An electronic decision system, comprising:
an interaction apparatus configured to display a graphical interface, thereby retrieving multiple option values selected by a user;
a database; and
a decision module configured to retrieve at least one historical option value corresponding to the user and the multiple option values, wherein the decision module further determines a determination result according to the multiple option values, the at least one historical option value, and at least one scenario criterion, and displays the determination result on the graphical interface of the interaction apparatus.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The electronic decision system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the interaction apparatus is a touch-sensitive screen.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The electronic decision system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the user further logs into the electronic decision system by a login module of the electronic decision system, thereby recognizing identity of the user.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The electronic decision system as claimed in claim 3, wherein the decision module further comprises:
an analyzing module configured to retrieve multiple option data and the at least one historical option value from the database according to the recognized identity of the user, and display the multiple option data on the graphical interface of the interaction apparatus; and
a resource optimization module configured to perform a resource optimization process on the multiple option values, the at least one historical option value and the at least one scenario criterion to determine the determination result.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The electronic decision system as claimed in claim 4, wherein the analyzing module further provides at least one option for preferred requirements which is selected by the user, wherein when the user selects the at least one option for preferred requirements, the resource optimization module further determines the determination result according to the multiple option values, the at least one historical option value, the at least one scenario criterion, and the at least one option for preferred requirements.

### Claim 6

A decision method applied in an electronic decision system, comprising:
retrieving multiple option values of a user from a graphical interface displayed on an interaction apparatus of the electronic decision system;
retrieving at least one historical option value corresponding to the user and the multiple option values from a database;
determining a determination result according to the multiple option values, the at least one historical option value, and at least one scenario criterion; and
displaying the determination result on the graphical interface of the interaction apparatus.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The decision method as claimed in claim 6, wherein the interaction apparatus is a touch-sensitive screen.

### Claim 8 (depends on 6)

The decision method as claimed in claim 6, wherein the user further logs into the electronic decision system by a login module of the electronic decision system, thereby recognizing identity of the user.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The decision method as claimed in claim 8, further comprising:
retrieving multiple option data and the at least one historical option value from the database according to the recognized identity of the user;
displaying the multiple option data on the graphical interface of the interaction apparatus; and
performing a resource optimization process to the multiple option values, the at least one historical option value, and the at least one scenario criterion to determine the determination result.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The decision method as claimed in claim 9, further comprising:
providing at least one option for preferred requirements which is selected by the user; and
determining the determination result according to the multiple option values, the at least one historical option value, the at least one scenario criterion, and the at least one option for preferred requirements when the user selects the at least one option for preferred requirements.
