The application of computer-aided expert decision support systems to developing countries: A case of rural development in Kenya

Difficulties encountered during planning of rural development projects reduce the chances for successful implementation.

Managerial support and internalization of improved analytical capabilities and economic management techniques are critical to greater effectiveness in resource use and higher rewards in development efforts.
