Decision Support Systems (DSS) in Construction Tendering Processes

An Integrated Web-based Decision Support System for Tendering Processes

A Decision Support System (DSS) is an interactive computer-based system that helps decision makers (DMs) utilise data and models to solve complex and unstructured problems. Procurement or the tendering process is a decision problem of paramount importance for any business. A critical and vital procurement task is to select the best contractor during the tendering or bidding process. A case stud...

Application of Rough Set Theory in Data Mining for Decision Support Systems (DSSs)

Decision support systems (DSSs) are prevalent information systems for decision making in many competitive business environments. In a DSS, decision making process is intimately related to some factors which determine the quality of information systems and their related products. Traditional approaches to data analysis usually cannot be implemented in sophisticated Companies, where managers ne...

A DSS-Based Dynamic Programming for Finding Optimal Markets Using Neural Networks and Pricing

One of the substantial challenges in marketing efforts is determining optimal markets, specifically in market segmentation. The problem is more controversial in electronic commerce and electronic marketing. Consumer behaviour is influenced by different factors and thus varies in different time periods. These dynamic impacts lead to the uncertain behaviour of consumers and therefore harden the t...
