Influence of algorithmization and interface for the preparation of management decisions

Abstract

In modern conditions, managerial decision-making is carried out using automated systems under the general name “Decision Support Systems” (DSS). When creating them, it is important to consider two key points. The first is the algorithmic component, which reflects the logic of the system as a whole and its individual parts. The second is the application interface through which the user interacts with it. The interface is a graphical interpretation of the algorithms that are implemented within the system. Therefore, it is very important to design and create such a relationship between the algorithm and the interface so that the user is as comfortable as possible using the DSS to solve current tasks (information input, its processing, presentation and analysis for decision making). Thus, there is a directly proportional relationship between the interface and the algorithm. Moreover, despite the fact that there are many studies on these aspects, both theoretical and practical, there are still questions to which one should pay attention to in terms of application. The purpose of this study is to formulate practical recommendations to prevent the entry of incorrect information into the DSS database and to present the results in a form convenient for its analysis. The main tasks of the work are to show by means of examples which errors can contribute to the entry of unreliable information into the database, as well as how best to present information on the monitor screen in accordance with the psychophysiological characteristics of a person in order to reduce the time for its analysis and decision-making.
