A Multidiscipline Study
• It is clear that DSS belong to an environment
with multidisciplinary foundations, including
(but not exclusively):
– Database research,
– Artificial intelligence,
– Human-computer interaction,
– Simulation methods,
– Software engineering, and
– Telecommunications.

Why DSS?
• Increasing complexity of decisions
– Technology
– Information:
• “Data, data everywhere, and not the time to think!”
– Number and complexity of options
– Pace of change
• Increasing availability of computerized support
– Inexpensive high-powered computing
– Better software
– More efficient software development process
• Increasing usability of computers
– Decision quality
– Improved communication
– Cost reduction
– Increased productivity
– Time savings
– Improved customer and employee satisfaction

Capabilities of a DSS (2)
• Highly structured problems
– Straightforward problems, requiring known
facts and relationships.
• Semi-structured or unstructured problems
– Complex problems wherein relationships
among data are not always clear, the data may
be in a variety of formats, and are often
difficult to manipulate or obtain

Components and Structure of DSS
• Data Management
– Includes the database(s) containing relevant data for the
decision situation
• User Interface
– Enables the users to communicate with and command
the DSS
• Model Management
– Includes software with financial, statistical,
management science, or other quantitative models
• Knowledge Management
– Provides knowledge for solution of the problem;
supports any of the other subsystems or act as an
independent component

Step 1
• The conceptual need for a project arise mainly as a result
of an basement of future requirements.
• It may be made by a team of experts.
• Typically a conceptual study will identify the technical
solution required, the economic merits, and acceptability
of project in socio political terms.
• It may require discussion with financial institutions
wither or not they will provide necessary funds.
What-if Analysis
◦ Checks the impact of a change in the assumptions or other input
data on the proposed solution
Goal-seeking Analysis
◦ Find the value of the inputs necessary to achieve a desired level
of output

Executive Decision
Support System (EDSS)
Helps to monitor :
organizational performance,
Track activities of competitors,
Spot problems,
Identify opportunities
Forecast trends.
133
EDSS
It is also known as
• Executive Support Systems(ESS)
• Executive Information Systems(EIS)
o Benefits
o Increases organizational control.
o Reveals new approaches to thinking about the problem space.
o Encourages exploration and discovery on the part of the decision maker.
o Creates a competitive advantage over competition
134
EDSS Capabilities
• Drill down-ability to go to details at several levels
• Critical success factors-most critical for success of business
• Key performance indicator
• Status access-latest data available on Knowledge Process (KP)
• Trend analysis-short , medium and long term trend on KP
• Adhoc analysis-analysis made anytime upon demand
• Exception reporting-report that highlight deviations larger than certain threshold
