Abstract
A decision support system is described that solves various technical problems associated with prior systems. The system may include a thin client application that downloads question sets from a server. The question sets may include a series of interlinked questions and answers as well as scores associated with the answers. Scores of selected answers may be tallied and a decision corresponding to the cumulative score of the selected answers may be provided to a user. As a result, the system may enable the ability to update (add, revise or delete) questions, answers and question lines without needing to recompile and redistribute the client application. In addition, the transmission of a complete question set reduces overall network traffic and technical problems arising from network disruptions among other technical benefits.
