“…Within this research project, activity theory was used as the overarching framework for understanding and exploring information management (Chen, Sharman, Chakravarti, Rao, & Upadhyaya, ; Kutti, ; Lim & Hang, ; Wilson, ). It was also used to study information behavior in similar environments (Allen, ; Allen, Karanasios, & Slavova, ; Chen et al., ; Henggeler Antunes, Almeida, Lopes, & Clímaco, ) and is particularly helpful in situations where one needs to make sense of actions in terms of their impact on the activity, on participants, and on their developmental potential (Engeström, ).…”

In this paper we explore the three areas: decision making and information seeking; the relationship between information seeking and uncertainty; and the role of expertise in influencing information use. This is undertaken in the context of qualitative study into decision making in the initial stages of emergency response to major incidents. The research took an interpretive approach in which Activity Theory is used as a methodological and analytical framework. The research provides further evidence that the context of the activity and individual differences influence choice of decision mode and associated information behaviour. We also established that information is often not used to resolve uncertainty in decision making and indeed information is often sought and used after the decision is made to justify the decision. Finally we point to the significance of both expertise and confidence in understanding information behaviour. The contribution of the research to existing theoretical frameworks is discussed and a modified version of Wilson's problem solving model is proposed.

This article establishes the knowledge base for the decision-making module within the information monitoring system software package designed for the continuous production stages of oil and fat enterprise. The construction of the knowledge base relies on a frame model, which serves as a mathematical framework for the conceptual representation of objects. Object-oriented programming in C# is employed to implement the knowledge mechanism outlined by the frame model. The knowledge base is formed through abstract frames and the objects derived from them, specifically tailored for the storage and processing of oilseeds. Decision-making processes are then executed based on the information stored within this knowledge base.

This study focuses on examining the structure of decision support systems (DSS) research, with a particular emphasis on assessing the contributions of multi‐criteria decision making (MCDM) to the development of each of the DSS subspecialty areas. This study traces how concepts and findings by researchers in the MCDM area have been picked up by DSS researchers to be applied, extended and refined in the development of DSS research subspecialties. In doing so, factor analysis is applied to an author cocitation frequency matrix derived from a large database file of comprehensive DSS literature. This study concludes that researchers in the MCDM area have made crucial contributions to the development of DSS research subspecialties. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
