Abstract

How to integrate human (expert) into the procedure of decision-making is an important issue for the next generation of decision support systems (DSS). Based on the concepts related to humanware (Hw) in our research, including Hw, Hw technology, HW service, and Hw and knowledge, the framework of novel decision systems (NDS) is presented. Then this paper proposes the structure of Hw model (HwM), which describes the key component and implement steps in detail. HwM can convert human (expert) into one component, so as to facilitated Hw to participate in the procedure of decision-making. Finally, a case study demonstrates that Hw can be engaged in the procedure of decision-making.
