Decision Support Systems (DSS) development using a model of user inquiry types: Methodological proposals and a case study

A study of the DSS implementation area reveals an increased emphasis on methodologies for DSS development. As the DSS field matures, a larger number of methodological options are becoming available to the DSS developer. Existing methodologies have adopted various methods for performing the important task of DSS requirements analysis and specification. In envisaging a hierarchy of requirements analysis methods, a method for improved requirements analysis is proposed to remedy observed deficiencies within it. This method is based on a view of generic types of inquiries or solicitations made by the DSS user during decision-making. This formalism constitutes the basis of a proposed DSS development methodology that offers several benefits to DSS development. The intended benefits include a sharper and more focused requirements analysis to improve the DSS development process. This paper describes the model and methodology, alongside details of a real-world example of their use in developing a Marketing Decision Support System (MKDSS) for the support of marketing decision-making.

居住环境与绿化设计

居住区环境设计是一门新兴的学科。其规划理论需要进一步提高和丰富。为了创造舒适、方便、安全、卫生、美观的居住区和提供生活、休息、娱乐的优美环境，居住区环境设计即成为综合性新学科。居住区绿化设计的目的是要保持和利用原有地形、地貌，形成丰富的空间，要因地制宜，随坡就势，运用造园手法，组织各有特色的住宅组团，形成生活方便、环境优美的居住新村。本文就居民区空间功能的划分、住宅庭院绿化的布置进行了阐述，同时对居民区绿化的树种选择进行了说明。     

生态环境内涵的回顾与思考

本文回顾了近20年来生态环境一词在社会上和国内外的使用情况，讨论了其科学内涵。认为生态环境是由生态关系组成的环境，是生命有机体赖以生存、发展、繁衍、进化的各种生态因子和生态关系的总和。文章还论述了生态建设的涵义及其在实施科学发展观、推进可持续发展中的重要作用。     

对生态美学的两点质疑

作为生态美学重要的哲学——美学原则的“生态中心主义”，潜藏着颠覆“人本位主义”的危险；而作为对自然进行所谓“生态学的重新审视”而提出的“自然的复魅”，也存在着容易导致另一个极端的不良趋势，并且缺乏可操作性。本文拟对上述观点提出质疑和批评。     

Evolutionary and ecological implications of cardenolide sequestration in the monarch butterfly

Summary Monarch butterflies sequester cardenolides from their larval host plants in the milkweed genusAsclepias for use in defense against predation. Of 108Asclepias species in North America, monarchs are known to feed as larvae on 27. Research on 11 of these has shown that monarchs sequester cardenolides most effectively, to an asymptote of approximately 350 g/0.1 g dry butterfly, from plants with intermediate cardenolide contents rather than from those with very high or very low cardenolide contents. SinceAsclepias host plant species are distributed widely in space and time across the continent, monarchs exploit them by migration between breeding and overwintering areas. After overwintering in central Mexico, spring migrants east of the Rocky Mountains exploit three predominantAsclepias species in the southern USA that have moderately high cardenolide contents. Monarchs sequester cardenolides very effectively from these species. First generation butterflies are thus well protected against predators and continue the migration north. Across the northern USA and southern Canada most summer breeding occurs on a fourthAsclepias species and in autumn most of these monarchs migrate back to Mexican overwintering sites. The ecological implications of this cycle of cardenolide sequestration for the evolution of monarch migration are discussed.     

Methodological foundations of systems methodologies

In social systems science generally, and in management science particularly, recent developments in the variety of types of specific problem-solving methodologies (under the rubric of hard and soft systems approaches) have given an impetus to a line of inquiry, as well as debate on the nature of those methodologies. On the one hand, there has been the view that what we are witnessing is a form of Kuhnian crisis. On the other hand, a complementarist view of developments has been argued and a contingency approach proposed. But one thing has been common among the competing views: a belief that the prospects for further advances in the design and application of those methodologies, and in resolving the current controversies, lie in serious attempts to reconsider and clarify the underlying metatheoretical assumptions and concerns. This paper is an attempt to contribute to such an endeavor. A brief exposition of three methodological foundations (namely, empiricism, hermeneutics, and critique) is made, not only with the purpose of highlighting the nature as well as the limits of their epistemological and ethical claims, but also as a basis for illuminating both the nature of contemporary work on systems inquiry, design, and problem solving and the ongoing debate on what constitutes appropriate criteria for choice of specific methodologies.
