The principles of goal analysis and setting in industrial organization-and-engineering complexes are defined. The logical fallacies in the structures of goals are classified. A logical-linguistic semiotic system that models reasoning on goals is developed to reveal and correct logical fallacies in subjective analysis and goal setting in complexes. Keywords: goal, analysis, goal setting, reasoning, modeling. INTRODUCTION Goals and their structures formed during analysis and synthesis of goals play an important role in control of objects in production industry, in particular, in scheduling operation and development of organization-and-engineering complexes (complexes hereinafter). Goal setting endows goal analysis with ambivalence, and inadequate knowledge of goal setting in complexes introduces uncertainty. In production industry, such an uncertainty can be reduced by using certain structures (trees) formed by goals and subgoals, by adjusting ultimate goals of complexes with supersystems, by using techniques for goal analysis [1] that limit the space of subgoals with goal analysis strategies, and by formulating SMART-goals [2]. This, however, does not make the goal analysis logically correct and leads to false subgoals and logically fallacious goal structures. Since efficiency of control of complexes depends on the correctness of their structures as results of goal analysis and setting [3], the analytic structures of goals that possess these properties are assigned in the concept [4] to have a methodological function. Its implementation promotes formation of logically correct synthetic structures of goals and goal attaining systems. The present paper deals with a logical-linguistic semiotic system that models reasoning on goals being analyzed and on subgoals being set. This modeling allows prompt detection and correction of logical fallacies in subjective analysis and goal setting. The modeling of reasoning on goals required to reveal the principles of goal analysis and setting in complexes, to formalize them as knowledge of the system, and to develop interfaces with the semiotic system, lexicographic-thesaurus model of the object domain (Fig. 4 [4]), and classifications of situations on goals, which provide efficient operation of the system. Intelligent interface is implemented using a goal description language and a linguistic–logical transformer. The goal structure formed during reasoning on goals and represented as a semantic graph, with linguistically described goals, promotes explanation of fallacies in subjective analysis and goal setting. PRINCIPLES OF GOAL ANALYSIS AND SETTING The principles were established in studying the theory and practice of systems analysis and project management of industrial objects [5–9], systematization of a great number of goal formulations for complexes [9, 10], and formation and analysis of system view of goals and goal setting [11].
