Abstract

Decision support systems in ill-structured dynamic situations are considered; the systems are based on modeling the expert knowledge represented as cognitive maps. Simulation systems for cognitive maps that have been developed in Russia are used as an example to overview implementation methods of the main functional subsystems in the decision support systems under consideration.
