Abstract
In the design, development and use of computer-based decision support systems, the ultimate challenge and goal is to arrange and organize successful interaction between the computer and the active human being. This paper therefore examines the extent to which, by applying the hyperknowledge framework developed by Ai-Mei Chang, the holistic concept of man developed by Lauri Rauhala, and the Circles of Mind metaphor developed by Hannu Vanharanta for decision support systems, these systems can be made to emulate human cognitive processes. The approach is a new one, and it represents an emerging paradigm for achieving emulation and synergy between human decision-making processes and computer configurations.
