Development and Applications of Wireless Group Support Systems in Mobile Business

The new generation of wireless technologies has provided various wireless applications for business to conduct group decisions. Wireless devices provide several advantages to typical group decision support systems (GSS) by overcoming the existing limitations. At this moment, wireless group decision support systems (WGSS) have prompted multiple decision makers to consider these systems for a group meeting because of their flexibility and mobility. WGSS was further developed to overcome its limitations. The prototype consists of two components: the GSS server and WGSS devices (tablet PC, PDA, and cell phone). Quantitative data about user satisfaction for information, perceived enjoyment and perceived mobility with the system was collected from a questionnaire and t-tested. This study also highlighted WGSS applications to associated participants.
