Decision support systems (DSS) are currently developing rapidly and are increasingly used in various fields. More often, those systems are inseparable from information-based systems and computer systems. Therefore, from a methodical point of view, the algorithms implemented in the DSS play a critical role. In this aspect, multi-criteria decision support (MCDA) methods are widely used. As research progresses, many MCDA methods and algorithms for the objective identification of the significance of individual criteria of the MCDA models were developed. In this paper, an analysis of available objective methods for criteria weighting is presented. Additionally, the authors presented the implementation of the system that provides easy and accessible weight calculations for any decision matrix with the possibility of comparing results of different weighting methods. The results of weighting methods were compared using carefully selected similarity coefficients to emphasise the correlation of the resulting weights. The performed research shows that every method should provide distinctive weights considering input data, emphasising the importance of choosing the correct method for a given multi-criteria decision support model and DSS.

The chapter presents decision support systems in medicine, their basic principles, and structure. From the point of view of patient safety, the decision support systems can bring new unexpected sources of errors, which must be anticipated at the design, implementation, and validation stages. Nevertheless, a safe and easy-to-use system can greatly improve the quality of determining the diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy in healthcare. The authors of this chapter concentrate on the contribution of decision support systems to patient safety and on their potential to future contributions. A decision support system requires a user-friendly interface with the electronic health record and information system within the healthcare facility. The authors also present two examples of decision support systems from the genetics research.

Decision support system is a way to help decision maker to choose the best decision from several available alternatives. In the process of decision support system required criteria and weights to be used in the calculation process. Simple additive weighting (SAW) and Weigthed product (WP) are methods in decision support systems that have a search method taking into account the weights held by the criteria. comparison analysis is performed to look at between the WP and SAW methods, methods that have a higher level of accuracy and are in accordance with the conditions. The SAW method uses a weighted weaning system whereas the WP method uses multiplication in calculating the attribute rating. From the weight of each criteria there will be used in the calculation to produce several alternatives. The object of the case study in this study is the determination of people’s business credit in the banking world using seven criteria. the criteria used are personal character, credit status, business condition, income, guarantee, guarantee condition and installment. Results of testing using SAW method and WP method, it can help compare the best alternative level results by using the same data and criteria, so both methods can be used as consideration in decision making. WP method gives clear cost and benefit value compared to SAW, but in SAW result gives more clear result because it is based on predetermined value and weight.

The Agricultural and Related Industries Study Group of the Operational Research Society held a one-day meeting on ‘Operational Research, Agriculture and the Environment’ on 27 November 1998 at Silsoe Research Institute, Bedfordshire, UK. The group promotes the use of the scientific method in solving management problems. The aim of this meeting was to look at models concerned with the effects of management of the environment in agriculture. Two looked at decision support systems – one for land use balancing different interests and one from the point of view of biodiversity. Andrew Moxey however highlighted the difficulties of interdisciplinary projects and the risk of the ‘illusion of technique’ in decision support systems. Three other papers were more specific – concerned with livestock and climate change, nitrogen fertilizer rates and slurry application.
