The manuscript also examines operationalizing modeling knowledge in terms of predicate calculus; combining the data base and formal logic approaches; and the language and knowledge systems of a DSS based on formal logic.

For DSS developers, the big leap forward is to use the Web as computer, and Web technologies have provided a new media for sharing information about decision support and a new means of delivering decision support capabilities.

47 Citations1977Steven Alter
This paper attempts to shed some light on the whole issue of man-computer interaction and suggests that the authors should not allow their traditional jargon to shape current thoughts about the on-line tools they use now and the interactive tools they may use in the future.

This paper presents a meta-management model that combines a probabilistic approach to management, a reinforcement-gauging approach, and a management style called “strategic decision-making” that was developed in the context of a crisis.
