Abstract: Tom Naylor in the August 1982 issue of Interfaces asks the question: “Decision support systems or whatever happened to MIS?” In his article, Naylor makes several claims that are intended to discredit DSS as a separate area from MS/OR and MIS. This article addresses Naylor's claims with the purpose of showing that DSS is unique and deserves the attention it is receiving.
