Abstract

This study aims to demonstrate how the design of a decision support system (DSS) can improve the process of internal resource allocation in Brazil public universities. Currently, there are not any kind of general DSS for such a problem. To do so, the analysis is carried out by identifying the general model from the Brazilian Ministry of Education and the models from every federal university, finding similarities between each model, and dividing the models into categories, according to their similarities. Thus, a DSS resource allocation model prototype was proposed. The perspectives are to contribute to the decision problem of how to allocate resources properly faced by Brazilians public universities, take safer and reliable decisions, seeking to reduce uncertainties and to maximize their results.
