On Two Roles Decision Support Systems Can Play in Negotiations.

Peer reviewed

Kersten, Gregory E. – Information Processing and Management, 1987

Focuses on the role of the computer system in group decision making. Two systems used in solving negotiating problems--NEGO and MEDIATOR--and three procedures that can be utilized to develop group decision support systems are analyzed, based on multicriteria decision analysis and mathematical programming models.

Strategies for Building Distributed Information Retrieval Systems.

Peer reviewed

Macleod, Ian A.; And Others – Information Processing and Management, 1987

Discussion of the need for distributed information retrieval systems focuses on a model system, Fulcrum FUL/Text. Differences from distributed database management systems are described; system design is discussed; implementation requirements are explained including remote operation calls (ROC's); and a prototype simulation model based on FUL/Text…
