Abstract
This paper aims at reviewing several results concerning the development of practical Decision Support Systems (DSS) for real time production control in manufacturing. Several characteristic features of DSS that are highly demanded and/or accepted by human factors and mimic the human problem solving are identified. The perspective includes technology, business and human factors. A practical DSS illustrates the approach.
