FRAMEWORKS AND FORMALISMS FOR DECISION SUPPORT AND ORGANIZATIONAL MODELING (PROBLEM-SOLVING, INFORMATION PROCESSING, PLANNING)
Abstract
Four formalisms for describing organizations or decision support systems are developed. The first formalism is used to express the activities of the organization. The second is used to express the planning process by which the organization generates its activities. The third is a knowledge representation for organizational modeling. The fourth provides a framework for the design of a decision support system. The formalisms are studied to determine their suitability for modeling information processing carried out in parallel.
