Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A Decision Support System (DSS) helps people make decisions by providing interactive, user-friendly tools for directly manipulating data, analyzing data from external sources, generating statistical projections, and creating data models of various scenarios. EIS (Executive Information Systems) are designed for high-level executives to track key performance indicators, while TPS (Transaction Processing Systems) are focused on routine, daily operations. MIS (Management Information Systems) provide managers with reports and summaries of data collected from various sources. However, none of these systems provide the same level of direct data manipulation and analysis capabilities as a DSS.
