The authors review the performance of a computer-based marketing information system that was implemented in June 1982. Attention is focused on the reasons why the system was implemented, the process of system design, the impact of the system on corporate strategy and activity, and the system's effectiveness as perceived by the organization's executives, users, and information specialists. The objective is to provide a behind-the-scenes look at a system. The authors conclude with a list of suggestions that readers can consider in maximizing the performance of computer-based management information and decision support systems.<>

A central issue in supporting the use of document contents by knowledge workers and decision-makers is understanding how those document users think about and refer to the contents of documents. An approach to developing this understanding in specific document usage situations, called ontological analysis, is presented. The illustrative document usage task that is studied is an instance of the activity of preparing a response to a request for proposal. A semantic grammar, and static and dynamic domain equations for some facets of this task, are developed. It is concluded that ontological analysis holds promise as an approach to designing document user support.<>

The application of computer and information technology to cooperative work and group decision-making has grown out of three traditions: computer-based communications, computer-based information service provision, and computer-based decision support. The authors provide an overview of the various kinds of systems that have been configured to meet the needs of groups at work, evaluates the status of these systems in the US, evaluates the experience with them, assesses barriers to their further development and use, and draws conclusions about what future work in this area should be undertaken.<>

An approach is presented for improving the performance of decision-makers. It consists of supplementing decision-support systems with a decision critic and advisor (DECAD). The function of DECAD is to 'look over the shoulder' of the decision-maker, criticizing his or her actions and giving advice when appropriate. DECAD is a knowledge-based system with an architecture built around the artificial-intelligence notion of plan.<>

A formal approach to conducting hypothetical-situation analysis in decision-support-system models is presented. The formal approach is intended to minimize human weaknesses relating to information search strategies and use of firming evidence. A decision analytic model incorporating notions from experimental design is presented. A computer-assisted process is described, and research implications are considered.<>

Three categories of text-based information systems are discussed: computer-mediated communication systems, document-based systems, and text-based decision support systems. A model for a text-based decision-support system that actively supports environmental scanning and organizational communication by filtering and condensing text is presented. A brief discussion of future research directions is provided.<>

The author presents results from research examining the impact of the integration of external data of varying degrees of messiness in conjunction with use of an established group decision-support system. Messiness in this sense refers to the degree that the data comes from a large number of fragmented sources of varying degrees of objectivity across a broad spectrum of formats and contexts in environments with difficult and complex data interrelations. External data of varying degrees of messiness were provided in conjunction with the group's efforts to identify and assign priorities to key issues of a complex problem involving metropolitan land use and transportation planning. Research data were recorded on strategies of use and impact on decision-making as a function of external data messiness.<>

An approach for reasoning with preferences and ethical values is presented. The proposed system is based in logic, and it allows a person to iteratively modify his or her actions. preferences, or ethics in order to maintain consistency.

A description is given of the expert system parsing environment (ESPE), a system for debugging and testing expert systems written in IBM's expert system development environment (ESDE). ESPE can perform the following operations: count the number of paths between each pair of nodes (parameter-value combinations or rules), split the expert system by focus control block (FCB) and draw the relationships in each section, and perform a sensitivity analysis. The values of any output parameters that might change when a given input parameter changes from one specified value to another are listed. Also input parameters whose value change might cause a given output change are given. ESPE gives the expert system designer some of the software engineering tools used in traditional programming languages.<>
介绍了用IBM专家系统开发环境(ESDE)编写的专家系统调试测试系统——专家系统解析环境(ESPE)。ESPE可以实现以下功能:统计每对节点(参数值组合或规则)之间的路径数,通过FCB (focus control block)对专家系统进行分割并绘制各部分之间的关系,并进行灵敏度分析。列出了当给定输入参数从一个指定值更改为另一个指定值时可能更改的任何输出参数的值。此外,还给出了其值更改可能导致给定输出更改的输入参数。ESPE为专家系统设计人员提供了一些传统编程语言中使用的软件工程工具。

A hybrid knowledge representation for the problem of investment-strategy selection is described. This representation scheme is efficient in knowledge organization and inference performance. The types of knowledge required to support the selection process are identified. The interrelationships among these different types of knowledge are represented in a frame abstraction, and a frame-slot structure in clausal form is described. Knowledge acquisition, consistency, and completeness checks are shown in terms of sample Prolog rules.<>
