What system captures stores processes and displays information such as showing the location of all streetlights on a map?

[a] enable decision makers in different locations to participate in a group decision-making process

Electronic meeting systems

{a] branches of DSSs, are interactive information systems that give executives easy access to internal and external data and typically include "drill-down" features and a digital dashboard for examining and analyzing information.

Executive information systems (EISs)

[a] include a structured aspect that benefits from information retrieval, analytical models, and information systems technology.

[a], or programmable tasks, can be automated because a well-defined standard operating procedure exists for these types of decisions.

[a] are typically one-time decisions, with no standard operating procedure pertaining to them.

During the [a], the best and most effective course of action is chosen.

[a] is an interactive information system consisting of hardware, software, data, and models (mathematical and statistical) designed to assist decision makers in an organization. Its three major components are a database, a model base, and a user interface.

Decision support system (DSS)

In the [a], the objective is to define criteria for the decision, generate alternatives for meeting the criteria, and define associations between the criteria and the alternatives.

A [a] captures, stores, processes, and displays geographic information or information in a geographic context, such as showing the location of all city streetlights on a map.

geographic information system (GIS)

[a] assist decision makers working in groups. These systems use computer and communication technologies to formulate, process, and implement a decision-making task and can be considered a kind of intervention technology that helps overcome the limitations of group interactions.

Group support systems (GSSs)

[a] assists groups in communicating, collaborating, and coordinating their activities. It is a collection of applications that supports decision makers by providing access to a shared environment and information.

In the [a], the organization devises a plan for carrying out the alternative selected in the choice phase and obtains the resources to implement the plan.

In the [a], a decision maker examines the organization's environment for conditions that need decisions. Data is collected from a variety of sources (internal and external) and processed. From this information, the decision maker can discover way to approach the problem.

[a] are the different types of information systems that have been developed to support certain aspects and types of decisions. Each type of MSS is designed with unique goals and objectives.

Management support systems (MSSs)

The [a] included mathematical and statistical models that, along with the database, enable a DSS to analyze information.

A [a] is the liaison between users and designers. He or she is responsible for supplying information on what the model does, what data inputs it accepts, how the model's output should be interpreted, and what assumptions go into creating and using the model.

The [a] focuses on the DSS is implemented and usually addresses questions about data storage, file structure, user access, response time, and security measures.

Executive information systems branches of DSSs, are interactive information systems that give executives easy access to internal and external data and typically include “drill-down” features and a digital dashboard for examining and analyzing information.

Semistructured decisions include a structured aspect that benefits from information retrieval, analytical models, and information systems technology.

A(n) _______________ or programmable task, can be automated because a well-defined standard operating procedure exists for this types of decision.

A(n) _______________ is typically a one-time decision, with no standard operating procedure pertaining to it.

During the choice phase, the best and most effective course of action is chosen.

A(n) ___________________ captures, stores, processes, and displays geographic information or information in a geographic context, such as showing the location of all city streetlights on a map.

management support systems

The three major components of a decision support system are a database, a model base, and a user interface.

A model builder is not responsible for supplying information on what the model does, or what data inputs it accepts.
