Decision Support Systems (DSS): A survey

Emerging Applications of Decision Support Systems (DSS) in Crisis Management

The recent financial crisis, the growth of the frequency of extreme risk events are motivations for a new analysis of the mechanisms and processes that implies high risk and high uncertainty. The new dynamics and the severe impact of the extreme events (natural hazards, terrorism, technological accidents, and economic/financial crises), but also the complexity of interventions have motivated th...

Decision Support Systems (DSS) in Construction Tendering Processes

The successful execution of a construction project is heavily impacted by making the right decision during tendering processes. Managing tender procedures is very complex and uncertain involving coordination of many tasks and individuals with different priorities and objectives. Bias and inconsistent decision are inevitable if the decision-making process is totally depends on intuition, subject...

Clinical Decision Support Systems: A Visual Survey

Clinical Decision Support Systems (CDSS) form an important area of research. In spite of its importance, it is difficult for researchers to evaluate the domain primarily because of a considerable spread of relevant literature in interdisciplinary domains. Previous surveys of CDSS have examined the domain from the perspective of individual disciplines. However, to the best of our knowledge, no v...

A Decision Support System (DSS) for the Railway Scheduling Problem

The recent deregulation occurred in the public railway sector in many parts of the world has increased the awareness of this sector of the need for quality service that must be o ered to its customers. In this paper, we present a software system for solving and plotting the Single-Track Railway Scheduling Problem e ciently and quickly. The problem is formulated as a Constraint Satisfaction Prob...
