Abstract :
Three categories of text-based information systems are discussed: computer-mediated communication systems, document-based systems, and text-based decision support systems. A model for a text-based decision-support system that actively supports environmental scanning and organizational communication by filtering and condensing text is presented. A brief discussion of future research directions is provided.<>
