ICDSST 2018 - 4th International Conference on Decision Support System Technology – ICDSST 2018

The joint-conference aims to provide a communication platform for scholars, researchers, developers, specialists and other professionals in the related areas of decision making and decision support, including DSS methodologies and technologies as well as application oriented solutions, to get together in order to exchange ideas, share experiences, discuss key issues, and identify future research and development directions. Additionally, users of PROMETHEE are also welcome to participate and disseminate their theoretical developments, comparative analyses or practical applications of the PROMETHEE methods.
ICDSST – PROMETHEE DAYS 2018 Main Theme
The ICDSST – PROMETHEE DAYS 2018 will focus on the role, the qualities, the models and methods offered by sustainable data-driven and evidence based Decision Support, mainly applied to Environment and Energy. On these sectors, diverse stakeholders at various governance levels seek to devise and implement sound and robust policies which mitigate environmental impacts while taking into account various parameters. Decision Support Systems can simulate different scenarios and offer solutions in modern managerial issues which are full of redundant and complex information. Such rapidly evolving situations, which engage a large number of individuals with different agendas in complicated decision making processes, require such tools for support. It is in this context that the key topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
Decision Support Modeling
Decision Support and Expert Systems in the Environment and Energy Sectors
Data Visualisation and Decision Making/Support
Environmental and Energy Data Visualisation
Geographic Information Systems
Data Science, Big Data Analytics and Business Intelligence
Technical and Managerial Dashboards for Decision Support
Knowledge Acquisition, Management, Extraction and Visualisation
Collaborative Decision Making
Intelligent, Web-based, Spatial Decision Support Systems
Application Models and Systems: Agricultural, Environmental, Farming, Water Resources, Livestock, Fisheries, Warehouse, Sustainable Forest and Rangeland Management, Food Processing and Supply Chain Management
Simulation Models and Systems, Regional Planning, Logistics and Traceability
Case Studies involving any of the above issues
