Call for Papers

DSS 2010 - the 15th IFIP WG 8.3 International Conference on Decision  
Support Systems under the theme "Bridging the socio-technical gap in  
DSS - Challenges for the next decade"

July 7-10, 2010, Faculty of Sciences, University of Lisbon, Lisbon, Portugal
http://dss2010.di.fc.ul.pt

In recent years, bridging the socio-technical gap has been a challenge  
in many areas of research. The socio-technical gap is the great divide  
between the social aspects aimed to be supported and those that are  
actually supported, due in part to technical limitations and in part  
to the complexity of the contexts where decision support must be  
provided. In Decision Support Systems, this challenge has raised  
several important questions concerned with the account and  
encapsulation of social aspects of managerial decision making as well  
as with the representation of certain human cognitive aspects, such as  
intuition or insights within computational systems. The 2010  
International Conference of the IFIP WG 8.3 will focus on the theme  
"Bridging the socio-technical gap in DSS - Challenges for the next  
decade".

The IFIP TC8/Working Group 8.3 conferences present the latest  
innovations and achievements of academic communities on Decision  
Support Systems (DSS). These advances include theory, systems,  
computer aided methods, algorithms, techniques, applications and  
technologies supporting decision making.

DSS 2010 is sponsored by the International Federation for Information  
Processing (IFIP), the Faculty of Sciences at University of Lisbon,  
Operations Research Center-UL and FCT.

Submissions from academics and practitioners are invited and showcases  
of real case studies will be especially welcomed. Manuscripts will be  
peer-reviewed. The acceptance of the contributions will be based on  
the originality of the work, the relevance for the conference theme  
and its overall quality.

Suggested research topics include, but are not limited to:
- Affect and emotion in Decision Support Systems, e.g.
   - From rationality to intuition in decision making
   - Decision making in high risk situations
- Decision Models in the real-world, e.g.
   - Inclusion of ethical considerations in real-world decision models
   - Supporting complex decisions, e.g. urban planning and environmental policy
   - Supporting multiple perspectives and conflicting objectives
- Executive Information Systems, e.g.
   - Value judgments in executive information systems
   - Understanding how to represent soft information for decision support
   - Communication and decision support in managerial groups
- Negotiation Support Systems, e.g.
   - Cultural diversity in negotiation support systems
   - Problem specific design of NSS
- Knowledge Management, e.g.
   - Organizational issues in knowledge management
   - People management as KM - designing DSS to leverage human capital
   - Social software and networks in KM
- Knowledge and Resource Discovery, e.g.
   - Knowledge and resource discovery in corporate decision making
- Business Intelligence and Data Warehousing, e.g.

making / how are managers' contributions integrated into the corporate  
decision making

for instance:
   - Privacy in geographic information systems
   - Socio behavioral dynamics of geographic information system
- Rich language for Decision Support, e.g.
   - Methods and tools to support the communication between DSS  
developers and managers

provide information

Papers will be considered for publication as chapters of a book with  
the conference theme, published and distributed by IOSPress, in the
