The environment in which businesses function in today's world is becoming more and more complex and difficult. This complexity creates problems but even creates a number of opportunities- opportunities to develop Decision Support Systems to simplify these complexities. In this globalized and dynamic world, decision makers are regularly looking for ways to develop capabilities to decide better and quicker. DSSs serve the management, operations, and planning levels of an organization and help to make decisions, which may be rapidly changing and not easily specified in advance (Unstructured and Semi-Structured decision problems). The DSS talked about in the two Military cases deliver complex decision rules to the management and helps in the decision making process of the US Army Housing Management. Decision models and methods related to housing and community development is considered to be long-lived and multi-disciplinary. The DSS in context can be evolved to provide many different housing solutions. 1. Land Use Planning - Land Use planning can be done using a DSS which will he...
The Army Problem Solving Model was design to be use when time is not critical. The Army Problem solving model is a systematic way to arrive at the best solution. This system considers the risk and a detail analysis of each course of action to prepare an unbiased solution for the decision maker. In contrast with the Rapid Decision Makin and Synchronization Process (RDMS) was design to give the commander the ability make timely and effective decision without the expending too much time on processing or analyzing all the information.
1) If they feel there are more suitable methods for land management.

The Stand Your Ground Law is a highly debated, as well as controversial topic. The Stand Your Ground Law is law that admits an individual to stand their ground instead of retreating if they reasonably believe doing so is necessary to “prevent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another or to prevent the commission of a forcible felony.” (Sullivan 2013) Many people agree with the law because they feel they have the right to be able to protect themselves. On the other hand, many people feel the Stand Your Ground Law is only a way to kill and get away with it. Do you know which side you are on when it comes to this particular issue? In this essay, I will address and discuss both pros and cons on the Stand Your Ground Law topic. These pros and cons will lead to the conclusion that no matter what side you are on about these laws, they need advised.
There are many techniques in the Criminal Justice field that are used to solve cases. DNA testing is one of the best ways to solve cases. Each individual has there own unique DNA profile. Also, in this case DNA testing proved that an innocent person did not do the crimes. Furthermore, I feel that Colin Pitchfork deserves life in prison without a chance of parole.
Asemi observe that Management Information System (MIS) is one of the information systems that is computer based. Besides, Asemi defines MIS as “an organizational method of providing past, present and project information related to internal operations and external intelligences. It supports the planning, control and operation functions of an organization by furnishing uniform information in the proper time frame to assist the decision makers,” (2011). The aim of MIS is to satisfy the general information need of the entire manager in an organization. Before the advent of computers, the process of decision-making was one that was full of built-in advantages and ad hoc methods. Computers technologies have changed the landscape of the decision-making process completely by making the process less demanding and easy to undertake. The reason for this situation is that information technology has made access to information more automated, efficient, effective, timely, and less ambiguous. Consequently, the ordinary t...
The Army Problem Solving Model, and the Rapid Decision Making and Synchronization Process (RDSP) are systems that commanders use to solve issues that may arise. Both systems require time to complete. Commanders use Army problem solving when the problem is the pressing issue, and time is secondary. Commanders and staff use the RDSP when time is the major factor rapid is the key.
I believe that Decision Support Systems (DSS) can be properly implemented to facilitate decision making process as is done at Amazon.com. At Amazon.com DSS are used to emphasize change, speedy response, and flexibility in decision making. Though I believe that DSS are important in decision making especially for a company like Amazon.com whose focus is in e-commerce, there are concerns that must be addressed to make the implementation of DSS more accepted and effective.
Mesa’s Foundation Trust (MFT) is a medical provider that provides services to patients. MFT wants to reduce the amount of resources that were provider by several other facilities. During this consolidation MFT’s goal to continue to provide the same types of service and without impacting the amount of time. The need for a decision support system that can not only maintain the historical data, but also capture new data for analyzing. Based on the needs IT support must build the DSS to handle semi-structured problems. The decisions that are made based on given data are standard, but there will always be problems that fall outside the norm (Turban, Sharda, & Delen, 2011). There will be data that is known, but there will also be the unknown. The data should be gathered into a database that can provide management the ability to analyze. The system must be able to collect the given data and an process the information in a format that is understanding to the decision makers. Within the data driven model of the decision support system, the staff at the facility can quickly attend to the patients. Data must be accessible to all the associated medical facilities for MF...
* Develop a regional land-use plan in collaboration with local communities, local governments, ministry officials, non-governmental organizations and universities.
The solution found by planners to varied situations in practice very dependent on the certain criteria like social, economic, environmental, and political. The evaluation of a solution on these criteria defines the success of a solution.
Define the three primary types of decision-making systems, and explain how a customer of Actionly might use them to find business intelligence.
Three distinct decision making processes are programed decisions, operations research, and non-programed decisions (Dunn, 2010). Programed decisions are those made routinely and are well-known to the person making the decision (Dunn, 2010). Often these issues have standard rules and regulations that encompass them (Dunn, 2010). As stated by Dunn (2010), “operations research is closely aligned with systems analysis and is defined as the use of mathematical models, analytical methods, or structured inquiry to analyze a complex situation and identify the optimal approach” (p. 44). The third decision making process is non-programmed decisions, which are out of the ordinary having no typical solution (Dunn, 2010).
Prior to the start of the Information Age in the late 20th century, businesses had to collect data from non-automated sources. Businesses then lacked the computing resources necessary to properly analyze the data, and as a result, companies often made business d...
When learning about the field of land development at University’s, students are taking classes that demonstrate skills and thinking. Individuals have to apply planning concepts about problem solving in regional planning. Plus they have to do a demonstration on designs on regional planning and complete independent research and give group presentations. This experience helps prepare the students for the field and great job opportunities.
