Nowadays, pavement management systems (PMS) are mainly based on monitoring processes that have been established for a long time, and strongly depend on acquired experience. However, with the emergence of smart technologies, such as internet of things and artificial intelligence, PMS could be improved by applying these new smart technologies to their decision support systems, not just by updating their data collection methodologies, but also their data analysis tools. The application of these smart technologies to the field of pavement monitoring and condition evaluation will undoubtedly contribute to more efficient, less costly, safer, and environmentally friendly methodologies. Thus, the main drive of the present work is to provide insight for the development of future decision support systems for smart pavement management by conducting a systematic literature review of the developed works that apply smart technologies to this field. The conclusions drawn from the analysis allowed for the identification of a series of future direction recommendations for researchers. In fact, future PMS should tend to be capable of collecting and analyzing data at different levels, both externally at the surface or inside the pavement, as well as to detect and predict all types of functional and structural flaws and defects.

This chapter introduces spatial dimensions and measures as a means of enhancing decision support systems with spatial capabilities. By some way or other, spatial related data has been used for a long time; however, spatial dimensions have not been fully exploited. It is presented a data model that tightly integrates data warehouse and geographical information systems — so characterizing a spatial data warehouse (SDW) — ; more precisely, the focus is on a formalization of SDW concepts, on a spatial-aware data cube using object-relational technology, and on issues underlying a SDW — specially regarding spatial data aggregation operations. Finally, the MapWarehouse prototype is presented aiming to validate the ideas proposed. The authors believe that SDW allows for the efficient processing of queries that use, jointly, spatial and numerical temporal data (e.g., temporal series from summarized spatial and numerical measures).

To do Electronic Credit and furniture is quite difficult and less effective and efficient. Because the system used is still manual or not computerized, and the number of consumers who want to credit goods in Metro, it takes a few days or a long time to make a decision so that a system is needed, namely a Decision Support System using the Weighted Product method. The Weighted Product method is a method that uses multiplication to relate the attribute rating, where the rating of each attribute must first be ranked with the attribute's weight. The Weighted Product method uses multiplication as a liaison for attribute ratings, where the rating of each attribute must be ranked first with the weight in question. This research will produce an application or a furniture and electronic credit decision support system that can help make the credit granting process in the metro easier and more precise. The criteria used in this study are income, BPKB guarantee, KTP, family card (KK), home status, tutoring concerned and child dependents. Of the 5 examples of consumers who have been given in this study from A1, A2, A3, A4, to A5 then the highest ranking result of these 5 consumers is given to alternative A1 because the value obtained by A1 is higher than other alternatives. This system is designed using UML with the programming language PHP, CSS, Java script and HTML with the MySQL database.

Amikom Yogyakarta University provides various types of scholarships to students, one of which is an achievement scholarship. the selection process requires precision and also fast, so that the results obtained are in accordance with the provisions, if the selection process is done manually then it will take a long time and easy errors occur. Decision support systems using the Tsukamoto fuzzy method can help select scholarship recipients by performing mathematical calculations by the system and produce weighting criteria for each student as a reference in decision makers. Based on the results of the research of each criteria weight, namely GPA, achievement and assessment of parents obtained test results with an accuracy of 80%.

Discipline is a very important aspect to support the quality of these human resources. If there are insufficient or undisciplined resources, it will affect the quality of human resources. In its implementation the process of evaluating employee discipline is still done manually so it takes a long time. For this reason, a decision support system is needed to identify the level of discipline of staff and employees at STIKes and STMIK Hang Tuah Pekanbaru. The method used to develop this DSS is Simple Multi Attribute Rating Technique (SMART) with 6 attributes, namely performance, warning letters, absenteeism, discipline, complience to regulations, and compliance to superior’s order. The final result are divided into 3 categories, namely Very Good, Enough, Do Coaching. From the application of this method, it was found that 120 people got Very Good evaluation results, 11 people got Enough results, and 2 people got the results of Do Coaching. Decision support system with SMART method can identify the level of discipline of staff and, to later be given guidance to staff who get evaluation results. Do Coaching to become more disciplined and improve the quality of human resources in STIKes and STMIK Hang Tuah Pekanbaru

E-Government is about using the tools and systems, made possible by Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), such as Decision Support Systems (DSSs) as a strategy to enhance human resources output in public sector organisations. The aim is to provide better public services to citizens and the business sector. ICTs are already widely used by government bodies, especially in developed countries, just as in enterprises. In Zimbabwe, and in many other developing countries, Public Sector Organisations have already started exploiting DSS, unlike the private sector where such systems have been in use for a long time. DSSs have subsequently improved decision making processes in the private sector. Service efficiency and improved effectiveness are the expected benefits of DSSs exploitation alongside increased stakeholder value. This chapter aims to provide the grounds for building an evaluation theory or a framework for assessing DSS adoption and exploitation in the context of public sector and public services provision. It discusses the results of a study that finds that, to a greater extent, decision support systems can be used as an e-Government strategy that will in turn be highly effective in assisting decision making in Public Sector Organisations.

AbstractThis paper deals with a major difficulty and potential limiting factor in present-day decision support - that of assigning precise value to an item (or group of items) of clinical information. Historical determinist descriptive thinking has been challenged by current concepts of uncertainty and probability, but neither view is adequate. Four equations are proposed outlining factors which affect the value of clinical information, which explain some previously puzzling observations concerning decision support. It is suggested that without accommodation of these concepts, computer-aided decision support cannot progress further, but if they can be accommodated in future programs, the implications may be profound.
