Abstract

This editorial provides an overview of two emerging technologies that have wide implications for decision making and organizational issues. These technologies are decision support systems (DSS) and expert systems (ES). Both technologies are defined and discussed as stand-alone systems and as integrated systems. A perspective is provided to enable better integration of the papers that follow in this special issue.
