6. The multi-agent theory Reasons large number of criteria and restrictions; uncertainty of results; the necessity of taking into account occurring events; experts’ adequacy within limited area. 6PhD Students Conference, Rogow 2013 Rezults Speed-up process; High efficienty of procedure; Economy of resources (labor, material, computer, etc.).

14. The conclusion In theory: the concept of multi-agent situational analysis and its functional model received. In practice: – there is a high degree of differentiation in information society level of regions of Belarus; – only ICT sector’s work impact to GRP; – It’s necessary to increase ICT costs (now it’s less then 3% of GRP). In future: to develop a prototype of multi-agent decision-support system for region management. 14PhD Students Conference, Rogow 2013
