“…The approach used in this project is that used by Pervan (1998) in his analysis of published group support systems research. Pervan's taxonomy was based on Alavi and Carlson (1992). The article type taxonomy and the distribution of papers are shown in Table 11.…”

“…A third review paper focusing on DSS implementation, Alavi and Joachimsthaler (1992), provides a further anchor for the 1990 starting date of our analysis, as does the TIMS/ORSA and National Science Foundation sponsored discipline assessment (Stohr and Konsynski, 1992). Previous analyses of information systems research have used a similar sampling approach (Benbasat and Nault, 1990;Alavi and Carlson, 1992;Pervan, 1998). Alavi and Carlson (1992) used eight North…”

This paper critically analyses the nature and state of decision support systems (DSS) research. To provide context for the analysis, a history of DSS is presented which focuses on the evolution of a number of sub-groupings of research and practice: personal decision support systems, group support systems, negotiation support systems, intelligent decision support systems, knowledge managementbased DSS, executive information systems/business intelligence, and data warehousing. To understand the state of DSS research an empirical investigation of published DSS research is presented. This investigation is based on the detailed analysis of 1,020 DSS articles published in 14 major journals from 1990 to 2003. The analysis found that DSS publication has been falling steadily since its peak in 1994 and the current publication rate is at early 1990s levels. Other findings include that personal DSS and group support systems dominate research activity and data warehousing is the least published type of DSS. The journal DSS is the major publishing outlet; US 'Other' journals dominate DSS publishing and there is very low exposure of DSS in European journals. Around two-thirds of DSS research is empirical, a much higher proportion than general IS research. DSS empirical research is

“…We consequently first examined the classification schemes of similar studies (e. g., Alavi and Carlson 1992;Grover et al 1996;Palvia et al 2004;Seddon et al 1999) and adapted evaluation categories that were considered suitable for our review. We thereafter added further categories and items to cover all important aspects of this article's objective.…”

The article examines multidimensional approaches to measuring information systems (IS) success. The current state of related research is explored through a literature review and the classification of articles published between 2003 and 2007. The results show that the dominant stream of empirical research analyzes the impact that a specific type of information system has by means of users' evaluations obtained from surveys and structural equation modeling. Based on existing theoretical models and frameworks, several specialized success models have been developed to evaluate different types of IS, like knowledge management systems and enterprise systems. The results provide researchers with a comprehensive review and structuring of IS success research.

“…A combinação das diferentes metodologias com a utilização do método dedutivo de caráter teórico, conceitual e científico para a pesquisa histórica, e comparativo para o experimento (ALAVI, CARLSON, 1992;RICHARDSON, 1999) representarão, portanto, o cerne da pesquisa.…”
