Intelligent decision support systems
Overview
Our research focuses on the analysis, modeling and design of intelligent decision support (DSS) systems for business/management decision making, leveraging on as well as tackling challenges arising from advances in infocomm technology and information systems.
The underlying research methodology is a multi-disciplinary approach at the intersection of Computer Science (AI), Management Science, and Computational Game Theory.
Besides addressing research issues from the modeling and computational perspectives, we are also interested in designing software tools and frameworks that provides intelligent decision support to real-world operating environments, leveraging on IT such as grid, service- oriented architectures, semantic web, and software agents.
Our research is motivated by and deployed in commercial, government, as well as military organisations.
