Description
Summary:Since their introduction a quarter of a century ago, group decision support systems (GDSS) have evolved from applications designed primarily to support decision making for groups. Indeed, it is generally accepted that improvements of group support systems is a longstanding interest to organizational researchers, containing solid practical as well as scientific significance. Within this practice, there is increasing interest to implement new technologies to increase information accessibility of organizational groups, in order to advance its productivity. As group decision support systems (GDSS) become more widely adopted, issues relating to enhancement of how groups exchange and share information are becoming increasingly relevant. This research addresses how GDSS can be improved in order to increase knowledge sharing. Therefore, the research investigates the implementation of GDSS with the capability of knowledge sharing and analyzing the contribution of KS to enhance GDSS. The requirements of Knowledge sharing to enhance GDSS are also included. A finding result from UTM respondents is also presented. An enhancement model is being developed according to finding results and from the literature review. It is hoped that this findings plus enhancement model will aid to provide GDSS with the solid capability of knowledge sharing.
