DECISIONDECISION

Making decisions concerning complex systems often strains our cognitive capabilities.

Predicting how the system will react to an external manipulation such as a policy decision is often difficult.

PROCESS VIEW OF DECISION MAKING

Decision support system•Decision Support Systems (DSS) are a specific class of computerized information system that supports business and organizational decision-making activities .

•A properly designed DSS is an interactive software-based 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.

WHY DSS Because decision-making involves a complex

sequence of activities over time, it implies there are at least three functions that should be assigned to DSSs:

1) The capability of capturing and saving

information from previous activities; 2) Data processing capability;

3) Data retrieval capability.

COMPONENTS OF DSSCOMPONENTS OF DSS

There are three fundamental components of DSS :

DATA BASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (DBMS)

MODEL BASED MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (MBMS)

DIALOG GENERATION &MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (DGMS)

THE ARCHITECTURE OF DSSTHE ARCHITECTURE OF DSS

Types of DSS Types of DSS DS systems can be separated into seven broad

categories, each aiding decision making by different methods:

DATA DRIVEN DSS. MODEL-DRIVEN DSS. KNOWLEDGE DRIVEN DSS. DOCUMENT DRIVEN DSS. Communication Driven DSS. INTER & INTRA-ORGANIZATIONAL DSS. NEW BREED OF DSS
