本課程旨在研讀決策支援系統之基本原理與架構，幫助學生運用資訊來協助最佳決策的制定。內容除理論介紹外，亦將分組探討DSS應用。
課程內涵(Course Contents)共分成三大部分：
1. 決策支援系統與企業智慧：現代決策支持、決策支持概念、識別決策支持的類型、使用大數據進行決策支持、商業智能和數據驅動的DSS、預測分析和模型驅動的決策支持、決策支持的取捨、分析確認決策支持機會。
2. 大數據分析技術：Large-Scale File Systems and Map-Reduce / Finding Similar Items、Frequent Itemsets / Link Analysis / Clustering。
3. 應用探討(臨床決策支援系統)：臨床指引(Clinical Guideline)/ 臨床決策知識表達法 / 醫療保健分析(Healthcare Analytics)。

This course aims to study the basic principles and architecture of decision support systems and help students use information to assist in making the best decisions. In addition to theoretical introduction, the content will also discuss DSS applications in groups.
Course Contents is divided into three parts:
1. Decision support system and enterprise intelligence: modern decision support, decision support concept, identifying types of decision support, using big data for decision support, business intelligence and data-driven DSS, predictive analysis and model-driven decision support, decision support trade-offs, analysis and confirmation of decision support opportunities.
2. Big data analysis technology: Large-Scale File Systems and Map-Reduce / Finding Similar Items, Frequent Itemsets / Link Analysis / Clustering.
3. Application discussion (clinical decision support system): Clinical Guideline/Clinical Decision-making Knowledge Expression/Healthcare Analytics.
