TL;DR
HyperCard is a widely used hypertext system that has important hypertext characteristics and possesses a set of powerful user interface capabilities that can be incorporated in a GDSS to more effectively support decision making groups.
Abstract
HyperCard is a widely used hypertext system. It has important hypertext characteristics and possesses a set of powerful user interface capabilities. The authors highlight the important features of HyperCard and discuss its strengths and weaknesses as a technology for building a GDSS. They describe SAGE, a HyperCard-based GDSS, to illustrate how HyperCard capabilities can be incorporated in a GDSS to more effectively support decision making groups.>

Five interface design issues that are specific to decision support systems for groups are explored: the design of the public scree; the interaction between the private screens and the public screen; thedesign of the individual's interaction with the system as a whole; the effects of varying cognitive style, and the implications of cultural differences among participants particularly in international GDSS.
