Communications Requirements for Group Decision Support Systems
提出了一个群体决策支持系统（GDSS）中通信组件的框架，包含四个模块：群体规范监视器、群体规范过滤器、调用机制和文档格式化器，并参照ISO开放系统架构进行分层集成。
:Despite the increasing interest in developing group decision support systems (gdss), it remains unclear how communications between participants of a group problem solving process can be designed, implemented, and utilized in a computer-based distributed GDSS. This paper presents a framework for developing a Communications component for the GDSS. It supports conceptualization of a communication system as being composed of four main modules: the Group Norm Monitor, the Group Norm Filter, the Invocation Mechanism, and the individual decision support system (idss)-to-gdss Document Formatter. In reference to the International Standard Organization (ISo) Open System Architecture, the three first modules are integrated in the Application layer, and the last module in the Presentation layer.
