Components of DSS
Model management component consists
of both the DSS models and the model
management system
Data management component stores and
maintains the information that you want your
DSS to use
User interface management component
allows you to communicate with the DSS
Components of DSS
Overview of a Decision-Support System
The data base
Is a collection of the current or the historical
data from a number of the applications or the
groups.
Very well organized.
Provides very easy access for a large variety of the
applications needed.
Data integrity is to be maintained in a very
efficient way.
Decision Support System uses data that have been
extracted from the relevant databases both the
internal and the external and then stored
especially for the Decision Support System.
The Model base
Illustrates the different components or the
relationships of a phenomenon.
Can be a physical model, a mathematical model
or the verbal model.
Types of the models can be categorized as the
follows
Behavioral Model
Management Science Model
Operations Research Model
Types of the models
Behavioral Model
Focuses on studying & understanding the different behavior/trends
amongst the variables. Examples, trend analysis, co-relation,
regression etc.
Management Science Model
Based upon the principles of the management. Example, budgetary
systems, cost accounting, capital budgeting, inventory
management etc.
Operations Research Model
Based on the different mathematical formulae.
Represent the real life problems depending on the various variables
and the parameters expressed in the algebraic equations form.
Examples, linear programming, ABC analysis, mathematical
programming techniques, material requirement planning.
DSS software system/ (User Interface)
Provides a user interface.
Allows interaction between the users of the
system and the Decision Support System data
base and the model base.
Helps in the creation, storage and the
retrieval of the models in the model base.
Integrates them with the data in the
Decision Support System data base.
Key Differences: MIS vs DSS
DSS MIS
Non-routine decisions Routine decisions
Often unique problems Monthly
Requires data + Weekly
human knowledge/ Daily
wisdom Operational
Subjective Easy to automate
Best choice is very Often the best choice
unclear is obvious
MIS vs DSS: Different emphasis
DSS MIS
Analyze specific Performance info
problems More feedback driven
How are we doing?

MIS vs DSS: Methodology Differences


DSS MIS
Analytical modeling + Processing of data
Knowledge base
MIS vs DSS: Format Differences
DSS MIS
Interactive Reports Periodic Reports

Flexible, adaptive Pre-specified, fixed
