Modern critical care medicine is marked by a steadily growing amount of available patient data. This causes a new challenge extracting significant information concerning the patient's prognosis or diagnosis. Classic approaches of the decision support are prognostic scoring systems like

Abstract Since the early 1970s, decision support systems (DSS) technology and applications have evolved significantly. Many technological and organizational developments have exerted an impact on this evolution. DSS once utilized more limited database, modeling, and user interface functionality

This paper presents an extended abstract of the author’s doctoral research project on developing a multi-agent intelligent system for automatic managing supply chains. Supply chain management (SCM) is a very complex and dynamic environment. The doctoral work, which started in October 2005, is dedicated to finding better solutions for successful performance in the domain of real-time SCM.
