1. A computer-implemented system for an analytic network process (ANP) control structure with feedback throughout the ANP control structure, comprising:

  • a memory configured to store an ANP control structure; and

    a processor cooperatively operable with the memory, the processor configured to;

    store, in the memory, the ANP control structure with feedback throughout the ANP control structure;

    perform a BOCR calculation on the ANP control structure with feedback throughout the ANP control structure, to yield a result which is proper according to ANP theory when values are non-trivial; and

    store, in the stored ANP control structure, subnetworks according to ANP theory, one of the subnetworks being attached to a node-to-cluster connection in the ANP control structure instead of being attached to the node itself,the non-trivial values when the result is proper being when non-zero ANP alternatives of invert and add, or positives minus negatives, are under costs or risks in the ANP control structure using a subtraction formula.
