Objectives of the Course The aim of this course is to teach the basic information about management support systems and skills that may be necessary to the students when they take part in product planning, industrial design and identifying customer needs.
Contents of the Course This course examines the principles, categories, development and use of a specific set of information systems for supporting management decisions at all levels in an organization for faster and better decisions. It involves both theoretical and practical aspects of management support systems. The course starts with a discussion of the decision making styles and decisional needs of managers. Then it relates distinct management support systems (MSS) to those styles and needs. Among the systems studied are data-, model-, knowledge- and document-driven decision support systems (DSS): executive support systems (ESS): group decision support systems (GDSS): and Web-based DSS. In addition, the course investigates the principles and business uses of artificial intelligence (AI) applications: expert systems, fuzzy logic, pattern recognition, genetic algorithms, artificial neural networks, data-, text- and Web-mining, and intelligent software agents. Finally, a discussion of the justification and development of MSS followed by a look into their future and business intelligence trends closes the course.
