A decision support system was designed for
naval shipboard command-level decision makers
to enhance decision making in a littoral
environment or in any short-fused,
ambiguous, decision making situation. Design
of the prototype DSS was based on (1)
an understanding of the cognitive strategies
people bring to bear when dealing with the
types of decisions required in tactical decision making, (2) applying human-system interface
design principles which are expected
to help compensate for human cognitive
processing limitations, and (3) the extensive
involvement of subject matter experts
with vast command decision making
experience. Each DSS module will be described
in terms of what decision/s it is designed
to support.
