Abstract

Aim: To provide a guidance evaluation to the academicians who will work in this field by determining the methods used in solving multi-criteria problems in the management information systems literature and their application areas and trends.

Method: The data set was taken from 107 academic journals in the field of MIS in the SCOPUS database. The data set was analyzed, coded and filtered with a systematic method before analysis. Various analyzes such as bibliometric, trend analysis, text mining, clustering were carried out on the data set.

Findings: Publications are categorized in 3 different groups (information systems related, other fields and method development) in the management information systems literature. It is seen that the problem solving approaches directly related to information systems has more importance in the literature. In addition, it has been determined that customer-oriented subject areas (web site design, service quality, decision support systems and writing selection) are more prominent in the literature. In recent years, it is thought that the field has shown a trend towards areas such as data mining and big data

Results: The results obtained from the systematic literature review are thought to be both guiding academicians who will work in the field and beneficial for academic journal managers in cope with the topic related issues. Although the MIS literature is open to MCDM publications in both information systems and other fields, there is a shift towards customer-oriented and modern information systems areas.

Yönetim Bilişim Sistemleri Literatüründe Çok Kriterli Karar Verme Teknikleri: Sistematik bir İnceleme

Abstract

Amaç: Yönetim bilişim sistemleri literatüründe çok kriterli problemlerin çözümünde kullanılan yöntemleri ve bunların uygulama alanlarını ve trendlerini belirleyerek bu alanda çalışacak akademisyenlere yol gösterici bir değerlendirme sunmak

Yöntem: YBS alanında yayın yapan 107 adet SCOPUS indeksli derginin çok kriterli karar verme yayınlarının sistematik olarak toplanması, incelenmesi, kodlanması ve filtrelenmesi ile veri seti elde edilecek ve bu veri seti üzerinde çeşitli analitik yaklaşımlar ile (Bibliyometrik, trend analizi, metin madenciliği, kümeleme) kapsam, dergi ve kavram odaklı değerlendirmeler yapılması

Bulgular: Yönetim bilişim sistemleri literatüründe 3 farklı alanda (bilişim ile alakalı, diğer alanlar ve yöntem geliştirme) çok sayıda yayın yapılmaktadır. Bilişim ile direkt alakalı olan problemlerin çözümünün literatürde daha fazla değer gördüğü görülmektedir. Ayrıca müşteri odaklı konu alanlarının (web site tasarımı, hizmet kalitesi, karar destek sistemleri ve yazılım seçimi) literatürde daha ön planda olduğu belirlenmiştir. Son yıllarda ise alanın özellikle veri madenciliği ve büyük veri gibi alanlara doğru bir yönelim gösterdiği düşünülmektedir.

Sonuç: Sistematik inceleme sonucunda elde edilen sonuçların hem alanda çalışacak akademisyenlere yol gösterici olması, hem de akademik dergi yöneticileri için konu belirleme konusunda fayda sağlaması düşünülmektedir. YBS literatürünün hem bilişim ile ilgili hem de diğer alanlardaki ÇKKV yayınlarına açık olduğu görülmekle birlikte müşteri odaklı ve modern bilişim konularına doğru bir kayış söz konusudur.
