Systems engineering approaches to the establishment of a system for decision support based on situational analysis

The article discusses the issues of decision-making support systems (DMSS) creation based on the situational analysis of the current and projected situation in the controlled space. Typically, such control systems in real time are based on situational centers, which are sets of information, software, hardware, and staff implementing information technology to monitor the situation and its situational analysis to develop solutions and algorithms application of control actions. The paper considers characteristics of the DMSS components, implementing the full management cycle from goal setting to execution control decisions. It is noted that the implementation of the decision support system depends on the level of management — strategic, operational, tactical, basic, and functional features and methods of analysis of the situation at different levels of the control system.
