Is DSS just an alias for MIS? This question has been the subject of debate for a long time now. Thomas Naylor [1982] found it "impossible to ascertain what is either new or unique about DSS." Robert Blanning's [1983] reply to that was a description of DSS research at that time to show that DSS was a field worthy of research and that it had a future. If DSS is not the same as MIS, then what is the relationship between MIS and DSS? Perhaps, the differences between them are significant enough to warrant a new term. Or maybe, DSS is not entirely independent, but is related to MIS in a significant way. Or it may even be the case that DSS would eventually replace MIS. The purpose of this paper is to present an objective analysis of both MIS and DSS to help answer the above questions.
