Sinopsis

Excerpt from Decision Support Systems and Personal Computing

This paper explores the relationship between Decision Support Systems and Personal Computing. The aim is to clarify the key issues relevant to helping managers make effective use of computer technology in their own Jobs. The paper suggests that there exists a useful distinction between Personal Support (ps) and Organizational Support This distinction is critical for designing a system for effective decision support. The emphasis is placed on Personal Support by discussing development and research issues. Finally, it is suggested that Personal Computing lacks a conceptual base for exploiting the potential of small-scale computer technology and that Personal Support can provide such a framework.

Excerpt from Decision Support Systems and Personal Computing

Decision Support Systems (DSS) are interactive computer aids designed to assist managers in complex tasks requiring human judgment. The aim of such systems is to support and possibly to improve a decision process. Personal Computing (PC) is a more recent term that describes the direct use of small-scale systems by an individual for any information processing task. The user has complete control over all aspects of the technology: access, usage, program development and data management.

This paper explores the relationship between DSS and PC. The aim is to clarify key issues relevant to helping managers make effective use of computer technology in their own jobs. The paper provides an overview of DSS and suggests a distinction between Personal Support (PS) and Organizational Support (OS) that in itself seems critical to effective application of the concept of Decision Support. The paper then discusses design and development of systems for personal support and concludes with an assessment of key research issues.
