Title: 05 B730 03M أساسيات نظم المعلومات بكـــ م 01 فــ 01 نظم المعلومات + الشبكات الأمن السيبراني + الذك
Main Ideas, Concepts, and Lessons:
-
Course and Exam Logistics:
- The lecturer welcomes students and discusses administrative matters regarding slides, assignments, and exams.
- Updated slides will be sent after modifications; students should discard earlier versions.
- The exam will be closed-book, focusing on direct questions (multiple-choice and true/false) to test understanding rather than memorization.
- Students are encouraged to memorize keywords and concepts rather than exact definitions.
- Assignments will be graded soon, with opportunities for corrections to improve marks.
- Practice questions and test banks will be provided to help students prepare.
- Importance of self-training using online resources and test banks is emphasized to familiarize with question formats.
- Practical parts may be covered briefly if time permits, potentially using Excel.

Introduction to Decision Support Systems and Artificial Intelligence in Information Systems:
- Overview of decision-making systems, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Decision Support Systems (DSS), and their roles.
- Explanation of specialized analytics including predictive analytics and text analytics.
- Introduction to Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools used in these systems:
- Expert systems
- Neural Networks
- Genetic Algorithms
- Agent-based technologies
- Emphasis on understanding and memorizing AI-related terminology due to their relevance in current technology and future studies.
-
Decision-Making Models (Herbert Simon’s Model):
- Four stages of decision-making:
- Intelligence: Identifying the problem.
- Design: Developing possible solutions.
- Choice: Selecting the best solution after evaluating consequences.
- Implementation: Applying the solution and monitoring results.
- Decision-making is iterative, not strictly linear.
- Alternative model based on satisficing (accepting a satisfactory solution rather than the optimal one).
- Four stages of decision-making:
-
Types of Decisions:
- Structured Decisions: Clear inputs and outputs, governed by fixed rules (e.g., mathematical calculations).
- Unstructured Decisions: Multiple possible outcomes without clear rules (e.g., business strategy decisions).
- Recurring Decisions: Regularly repeated decisions (e.g., inventory checks).
- Non-recurring Decisions: Rare or one-time decisions (e.g., career choices, mergers).
-
Decision Support Systems (DSS):
- DSS are flexible systems that interact with IT to support complex decision-making.
- They handle unstructured data and provide multiple options.
- Examples include tools like Excel (considered a beginner-friendly DSS).
- DSS integrates data from multiple sources (internal databases, external government data, personal experience).
- Components include data management, statistical and analytical tools, and user interfaces.
-
Geographic Information Systems (GIS):
- GIS is a type of DSS focused on location-based data.
- Examples include GPS and Google Earth.
- Used in business to analyze spatial data such as customer behavior, location analytics, and mapping.
- GIS integrates databases, query/report tools, multi-dimensional analysis (e.g., OLAP, HyperCube), and dashboards (e.g., Power BI).
-
Data Mining and Analytical Models:
- Data mining tools support extracting patterns and knowledge from large datasets.
- Concepts introduced include:
- Association (Dependency) Modeling: Finding relationships between variables.
- Clustering: Grouping data based on similarities.
- Classification: Assigning data to predefined categories.
- Regression: Measuring relationships and predicting values.
- Dispersion: Measuring the spread or closeness of data points.
-
Predictive Analytics and Text Analytics:
- Predictive analytics uses historical data and models to forecast future outcomes.
- Text analytics involves analyzing unstructured text data (e.g., social media posts, reviews) using natural language processing (NLP).
- NLP tools analyze word frequency, sentiment, and context to interpret human language.
- Examples of predictive goals: forecasting company profitability, customer behavior, or market trends.
-
Artificial Intelligence (AI) Systems:
- AI aims to enable machines to mimic human understanding and reasoning.
- Key AI systems explained:
- Expert Systems: Knowledge-based systems that diagnose problems by understanding causes and effects.
- Neural Networks: Systems that detect patterns in data for classification and prediction.
- Fuzzy Logic: Deals with uncertainty and partial truths (e.g., weather predictions, traffic signals).
- Genetic Algorithms: Optimization techniques inspired by natural evolution, adapting solutions to different environments.
- Agent-Based Technologies:
