Design of decision support system for santri admission

Abstract

Pesantren requires some new qualified students through selection process for deciding academic and behavioural fairness. In this context, it is reasonable to utilize an application of a Decision Support System (DSS) to accelerate the student admission mechanisms since the existing process is unable to serve as reliable and objective procedures. The aim of this study is to design a specific computerized application that can be used to capture data of some potential students and recording relevant data for pesantren. Using a structured approach for the system design method, selection-based value is analysed by a Multi Attribute Utility Theory. The study is resulting a capable DSS application to identify students who have proper criteria and build a measurable data documentation.
