SDSS For Location Planning, Or The Seat Of The Pants Is Out
A paper by Larry Daniel that reviews the general characteristics of a spatial decision support system (SDSS) applied to site analysis.
http://www.colorado.edu/geography/gcraft/notes/gisapps/sdss.html

Extractions: (Published in GeoInfo Systems December 1992) In the GeoInfo Systems May '92 issue, Donald Cooke described the general characteristics of a spatial decision support system (SDSS). This article reviews those concepts and extends the discussion by examining SDSS as it has historically applied to site analysis. As described by Donald Cooke in the May '92 issue of GeoInfo Systems, a spatial decision support system (SDSS) is 'canned software that is intuitively obvious to use, solves problems efficiently and delivers immediate results'. SDSS is off-the-shelf software for carefully selected functions, i.e. bug-free point-and-shoot capabilities on very specific spatially-oriented needs. SDSSs don't require in-depth commands to operate, yet allow users to negotiate very sophisticated geographic analysis. Many of the distinctions between GIS and SDSS are derived from the differences in their target audiences. While GIS sites often employ technical analysts to plow through the nitty-gritty of setting up databases and defining complex functions, SDSS sites generally have but one or two business analysts who want to make spatial decisions but don't want to become immersed in the intricacies of GIS. The SDSS users don't seek a smorgasbord of commands, they want a select handful of intuitive operations to yield quick and effective answers. They want to avoid technically complex operations and while they're impressed by GIS' potential, what they really want is three or four buttons and an answer.

He came up with the Malthusian Theory of Population Growth. The salient points of his theory were Food production increased at an arithmetic ratio (1, 2, 3...) while population increased at an exponential ratio (1, 2, 4, 8...). Population growth would outstrip food supply, and mass starvation would follow.
