Abstract:
Decision Support Systems (DSS) are a specific class of computerized 
information systems which are designed to support business or organizational 
decision-making activities. A properly designed DSS is an interactive 
software-based system which aims to assist decision makers in making 
decisions and solving problems. Space management in the past few years 
has been an increasingly important issue for both businesses and 
organizations and many attempts to solve the problem of space allocation 
have been made either by increasing the available space or by attempting 
to increase the efficiency of use of the available space. This dissertation 
aims to develop a decision support system for office space management 
in an attempt to improve future office space allocation in organizations 
by concentrating its studying at the office space allocation in The 
University of Nottingham at Jubilee Campus, Computer Science building. 
The decision support system developed, consists of a mixed approach of 
gathering, processing and presenting the appropriate data that are 
required by the office space management officer in order to perform the 
office space allocation, aiming to assist in the overall office space 
allocation process.
