Quizplus · Accepted Answer

EIS (Executive Information System) is a type of DSS that supports the strategic information needs of executive management. It provides executives with quick access to summarized information from various sources to help them make informed decisions. AI (Artificial Intelligence) and KM (Knowledge Management) are not specific types of DSS, and TPS (Transaction Processing System) is designed to support operational decision-making, not strategic.
