A

Actor Network Theory provides a suitable lens for exploring both technical and human aspects of DSS institutionalization in the forestry domain +See case  +
As the core of forest DSS are models describing the development of trees and stands (growth and +This concern scope, design and maintenance of a DSS. If a system made up of a set of applications based on the same core of central growth and yield models and other central models, system maintenance is enhanced. If e.g., changes should be implemented in the growth and yield models you need only to do the changes in one place instead of doing them in several different software.  +

B

Biomasfor allows to obtain information at different spatial scale +see case  +

D

DSS allowed to explain better some technical concepts to non-professional stakeholders +Pertains knowledge transfer and sharing  +

E

Enabling the analyses of several ecosystem services (timber and non-timber resources) in one and the +This concerns scope and design of a DSS. As many ecosystem services - quite naturally - are closely related to the state and development of trees and stands, several goods and services can by relevant models be included, such at timber and bio-fuel production, carbon sequestration, habitat for species and recreational aspects.  +

F

From a management perspective, to avoid the complication of testing something new, the models used +about DSS adoption  +

G

Getting joint funding from both the forest and environmental sectors can be a successfull for +The forest ecosystem concern several parts of the society; forest owners, forest industries, environmental agencies etc and there are quite good possibilities to raise funding from several sources and funds.  +

I

Interpretative case studies can help reduce the gap between research and practice +See case  +
It would have been better to involve some end users at earlier stages of the system development +This requirement depends on the problem statement; some problems can be solved without neighbourhood interrelations. Some problems with neighbourhood interrelations, such as demanding a large area of interior conditions (no edge effects) tend to be large combinatorial problems.  +

M

Metodology and results are transparent and easy-to-share to non-expert stakeholders +see case  +

N

Need of flexibilization of analytical tools - no overdesigned tool that provides too much features for the use +This requirement depends on the problem statement; some problems can be solved without neighbourhood interrelations. Some problems with neighbourhood interrelations, such as demanding a large area of interior conditions (no edge effects) tend to be large combinatorial problems.  +
Neighbourhood interrelations should be included in the generator +This requirement depends on the problem statement; some problems can be solved without neighbourhood interrelations. Some problems with neighbourhood interrelations, such as demanding a large area of interior conditions (no edge effects) tend to be large combinatorial problems.  +

P

Providing procedures and structure for data flow from selection of field sample, performing field +A standardized flow of data from field survey to the analysis and planning system makes data handling easy. A drawback is the possibilities to import data from different forms of surveys.  +

R

Regular ongoing engagement helped maintain interest of users +The KM phase pertains mainly to knowledge transfer and sharing  +
Requirement of specialized skills can discourage some potential users +see case  +
Results are always strongly dependent on the quality of the underlying data +This is a very general statement and is valid in all cases!  +

T

The analysis of the actor network interactions allowed to identify the criticalities to be solved in order to develop the collaborative process +See case  +
The tracing of the current actor network interactions made the group realize that they need a different kind of stakeholders from what they previously thought +see case  +
The user has to be aware of the possibly large impact that the chosen land indicators and threshold +A very general statement and is valid in many cases, but it is probably more pronounced in some models than in others.  +

U

Using Actor Network Theory in the design stage can help in understanding the dynamism of the network +See case  +

V

Visualization of the preliminary actor network made the people explicity include the DSS in a planning process +see case  +
