Decision Support System
It is an "informational application" (to distinguish it from an "operational application" that collects the data in the course of normal business operation).
A decision support system
is a computer system that typically encompasses mathematical models as well as informational databases and a user interface in order to provide recommended decisions to manager-users
A decision support system (DSS)
the term refers to an interactive computerized system that gathers and presents data from a wide range of sources, typically for business purposes
Abbreviated DSS
a national on-line book seller wants to begin selling its products internationally but first needs to determine if that will be a wise business decision
An example of DSS
There are a number of Decision Support Systems. These can be categorized into five types:
Communication-driven DSS, Data-driven DSS, Document-driven DSS, Knowledge-driven DSS,and Model-driven DSS.
are targeted systems that combine analytical for models with operational data and supportive interactive queries and analysis for middle managers who face semi-structured decision situations.
Decision support systems
systems are computer-based systems that provide top managers with the capability to attain easy access to internal and external information which is relevant to strategic decision making and other executive responsibilities
Executive support systems
is ideally suited for building decision support systems due to its wide reach of data, interactive facilities, ad hoc reporting capabilities, quick development times, and simple Web-based deployment.
Information Builders' WebFOCUS
A decision support system
It may be aimed at business executives or some other group of knowledge workers.
systems emphasize access to and manipulation of a statistical, financial, optimization or simulation model.
Model-driven decision support systems
system option educates the student in the design, implementation and use of computerized systems that support business managers in the decision-making process
The decision support systems
A decision support system may present information graphically and may include an expert system or
artificial intelligence (AI)
Some decision support systems come very close to acting as
artificial intelligence agents.
By early 1980's
enjoyed more interests from academics and the framework for Decision Support Systems was greatly expanded by the end of the decade.
A decision support system (DSS)
is a computer program application that analyzes business data and presents it so that users can make business decisions more easily.
Decision support systems
support semi-structured and unstructured problem analysis and emphasizes change, flexibility, and a rapid response.
Decision Support System
system intended to help decision makers compile useful information from raw data, documents, personal knowledge, and/or business models to identify and solve problems and make decisions.
are interactive computer-based systems and subsystems intended to help decision makers use communications technologies, data, documents, knowledge and/or models to complete decision process tasks.
DSS
provides varying analysis without much programming effort and is usually directed towards non-technical users/managers
DSS
system that support decision making by enabling users to extract useful information that was previously buried in large quantities of data.
Data-driven Decision Support Systems
are a specific class of computerized information system that supports business and organizational decision-making activities
Decision Support System
are a class of computerized information system that support decision-making activities.
Decision Support Systems (DSS)
are a specific class of computerized information system that supports business and organizational decision-making activities
Decision Support Systems (DSS)
. DSS applications are
systems and subsystems that help people make decisions based on data that is culled from a wide range of sources.
It was only during the 1990's that
that a paradigm shift occurred in Decision Support Systems and more complex systems, which incorporated, advanced database technology and client/server capabilities, were emerging from many areas in business processes.
