Group Decision Support Systems (GDSS) are a class of electronic meeting systems, a collaboration technology designed to support meetings and group work. GDSS are distinct from computer supported cooperative work technologies as GDSS are more focused on task support, whereas CSCW tools provide general communication support. Group Decision Support Systems (GDSS) were referred to as a Group Support System (GSS) or an electronic meeting system since they shared similar foundations.

  • Group Decision Support Systems (GDSS) are a class of electronic meeting systems, a collaboration technology designed to support meetings and group work. GDSS are distinct from computer supported cooperative work technologies as GDSS are more focused on task support, whereas CSCW tools provide general communication support. Group Decision Support Systems (GDSS) were referred to as a Group Support System (GSS) or an electronic meeting system since they shared similar foundations. However today's GDSS is characterised by being adapted for a group of people who collaborate to support integrated systems thinking for complex decision making. Participants use a common computer or network to enable collaboration. Significant research supports measuring impacts of: Adapting human factors for these technologies, Facilitating interdisciplinary collaboration, and Promoting effective organizational learning. Group Decision Support Systems are categorized within a time-place paradigm. Whether synchronous or asynchronous the systems matrix comprises: same time AND same place same time BUT different place different time AND different place different time BUT same place Several commercial software products support GDSS practices. There is also an initiative to create open-source software that can support similar group processes in education, where this category of software has been called a Discussion Support System.

  • Les GDSS (Group Decision Support System) sont des logiciels d'aide à la prise de décision collective. Ils permettent notamment de préparer en ligne des réunions, et d'éviter ainsi le gaspillage de temps qui caractérisent souvent les réunions d'équipe. Ce sont des systèmes qui tentent de structurer la prise de décision en groupe.
