The Study Of The Networked Coal Transportation And Marketing Decision Support System

With the growing of network information development, nowadays, most coal industry of our country have build Coal Transportation and Marketing Management System(CTMM) to manage and control the marketing operations. However, these systems are mostly based on simply collection, statistics and summary of the transportation and marketing data, which can't unit the upper and underlying data best and immediately. Plus the continuous adjustment of corporate structures, the system can only change the data frequently, that makes CTMM generally exist the problems that statistics are not complete or out of stock, cannot use the data best. And cannot use the relationships among the data provide the decision maker general decision support of the company.Networked Coal Transportation and Marketing Decision Support System will base on the data and information of coal transportation and marketing, comprehensively use the theory and models of a variety of subjects like System Science, Behavioral Science, provide decision makers the environment of analysis problems, build models, simulate the decision process and solution. Use every information source and analysis tools, helping decision maker improve their ability and quality to make decisions.This paper base on introducing the theoretical knowledge of DSS, according to the requirements of coal transportation business, research the overall design ideas, system framework, main function, design object, data flow of Networked Coal Transportation and Marketing Decision Support System, complete the design works of database, model base, knowledge base and human-computer dialogue system etc.In the domestic coal industry, the Networked Coal Transportation and Marketing Decision Support System has wide range of applications, it can be used in domain which involved produce, sale, and other like storage. It can improve the decision maker the ability to handle the information and knowledge, handle the complicated problems, improve the level and quality of decision, then, improve the operation and management efficiency of company, and enhance the core competitiveness of company. Help promote the distribution of modern science and technology apply in transportation and marketing management field, help improve the management level of the entire system, to accelerate the modernization of coal transportation in order to address the complex background of decision-making related areas, such as volatile and unpredictable problems.
