Abstract: Abstract Complex and long-range issues present significant challenges to policy-making methods such as computerized models and expert panels. Policy exercises are recognized as a more open and appropriate way to synthesize information, tools, and methods in policy-making. From brainstorming to questionnaires, from group dictionary to stakeholder identification, more tools and methods are now automated and/or supported. This article, after reviewing policy exercises, describes a COmputer-Supported Meeting Environment (COSME) framework and evaluates the use of that information technology to support policy exercises. A possible extension of policy exercises to electronic meeting systems with global reach is mentioned.
