Self-organization based DSS framework

This paper presents a new decision support system (DSS) framework based on the self-organization principle, which offers flexibility and rationality in a complex enterprise environment. Firstly, the complexity of the current decision environment is analyzed. Then, the decision procedure model and its general dynamic state equation model are introduced. As the order-parameter is a key concept in the self-organization principle, the paper gives a diagrammatic strategy for DSS modeling, which divides the DSS solution methodology into both an order-parameter abstraction and a rule propagation procedure. The fractal data structure of the DSS is explained. Furthermore, a self-organization simulation model is introduced, which is the core of the new DSS framework, and which results in an advanced decision support strategy
