  text: Corporate decision makers have individual requirements for decision support
    influenced by business goals, regulatory restrictions or access to resources such
    as data. Ideally, decision makers could quickly create tailored decision support
    systems (DSS) themselves which optimally address their individual requirements
    for decision support. Although service-oriented architectures have been proposed
    for DSS customization, they are primarily targeting trained software developers
    and cannot immediately be adapted by decision makers or domain experts with little
    to no software development knowledge. In this paper, we therefore motivate an
    assisted process-based service composition approach which can be used by non-developers
    to create tailored DSS. For assistance during service composition, we contribute
    a meta-model for the formalization of both decision support requirements and functionality
    of decision support services. Models created according to the meta-model can be
    used to detect mismatches between a decision maker’s requirements for decision
    support and services selected in the service composition representing a DSS. Furthermore,
    the formalizations may even be used for automated service composition given a
    decision maker’s decision support requirements. We demonstrate the expressiveness
    of our meta-model in the domain of regional energy distribution network planning.
