Design of a modular DSS for public health decision-making in the context of a COVID-19 pandemic landscape

作者:

Highlights:

• Management of a pandemic could be enhanced by a rational public health decision making process.

• Decision Support Systems (DSS) can facilitate the exploration of pandemic-related questions.

• A public health decision-making process could be formalized and embedded within a modular DSS.

• A methodology for designing a modular DSS for public health decision-making is presented.

• The modular DSS would include established data analytic methods such a data mining methods and DEA.
