Abstract Strategic management studies frequently involve obtaining retrospective data from strategic‐level managers. The use of this acquisition methodology has received relatively little codification and critical review or comment. This seems unfortunate, as discussion the could be useful for those academic researchers corporate staff who study strategic decisions organizational processes managers may asked to provide data. paper is an attempt remedy current state affairs. In particular,...
Digital technologies are transforming operations, products and services in organisations large small. The digital transformation of is extolled as a solution to organisational challenges related both efficiency effectiveness. To date, there has been limited consideration the successfully operationalising transformative approach. This article examines some common dilemmas facing managers that may be relevant across range scenarios. Seven factors analysed provide starting point for creating...
Sudden impact disasters often result in the displacement of large numbers people. These movements can occur prior to events, due early warning messages, or take place post-event damages shelters and livelihoods as well a long-term reconstruction efforts. Displaced populations are especially vulnerable need support. However, timely accurate data on destinations displaced extremely challenging collect across temporal spatial scales, aftermath disasters. Mobile phone call detail records were...
Information technology continues to provide opportunities alter the decisionmaking behavior of individuals, groups and organizations. Two related changes that are emerging social media Web 2.0 technologies. These technologies can positively negatively impact rationality effectiveness decision-making. For example, help marketing managers consumer decision may result in poorer decisions by consumers. Also, who heavily rely on a network rather than expert opinion facts make biased decisions. A...
ABSTRACT Decision analysis tools often are used in semistructured and ill‐structured situations. While some researchers have argued that computerized decision programs may improve quality such situations, research support for this assertion is weak. In laboratory study, business students a decision‐analysis program with short strategic‐management cases to prepare reports. Independent raters' perceptions of aided unaided performance were contrasted, attitudes toward the assessed, individual...
Abstract It is important for managers and Information Technology professionals to understand data-driven decision support systems how such can provide business intelligence performance monitoring. Data-driven DSS one of five major types computerized the features vary across specific implementations. Different development packages also impact capabilities hence criteria evaluating software are understand. Overall, this article builds on an historic foundation prior theory. Keywords:...
Travel restrictions were implemented on an unprecedented scale in 2015 Sierra Leone to contain and eliminate Ebola virus disease. However, the impact of epidemic travel mobility itself remains difficult measure with traditional methods. New 'big data' approaches using mobile phone data can provide, near real-time, type information needed guide evaluate control measures. We analysed anonymous call detail records (CDRs) from a leading operator between 20 March 1 July 2015. used anomaly...
People and the computers they use are generating large amounts of varied data. The phenomenon capturing trying to all semi-structured unstructured data has been called by vendors bloggers 'Big Data'. Organisations can capture store many types from almost any source, but storing only adds value when it a useful purpose. Big Data must be used provide input analytics decision support capabilities if is create real for organisations. Some bloggers, industry leaders academics have become...
The mechanisms of variation, selection and inheritance, on which evolution by natural depends, are not fixed over evolutionary time.

Evidence-based decision making seems both desirable and rational. New analytical tools for investigating 'big data' promise to provide additional unbiased evidence. Concurrently, technological advances improving reopen issues related facts, biases, beliefs. For many years, support systems technologies have had the goal of enhancing effectiveness human decision-making processes, fostering rational thinking, avoiding biases errors. Recently, cognitive neuroscience research has highlighted...
A conceptual framework for Decision Support Systems (DSS) is developed based on the dominant technology component or driver of decision support, targeted users, specific purpose system and primary deployment technology. Five generic categories are proposed, including Communications-Driven, Data-Driven, Document-Driven, Knowledge-Driven, Model-Driven Systems. Each DSS can be to internal external stakeholders. have very general purposes. Finally, may a mainframe computer, client/server LAN,...
This article defines an expanded conceptual framework for classifying and describing Decision Support Systems (DSS) that consists of one primary dimension three secondary dimensions. The is the dominant technology component or driver decision support. dimensions are targeted users, specific purpose system deployment enabling technology. Five generic DSS types identified defined based upon component, including Communications-driven, Data-driven, Document-driven, Knowledge-driven, Model-driven...
