ABSTRACT This study assesses and compares the eco‐efficiency of six olive production systems in the Alentejo region, southern Portugal, employing a life cycle costing (LCC) approach directly integrated with a prior life cycle assessment (LCA). Although LCC has been increasingly applied to Mediterranean olive‐growing, empirical research in Portugal ...

STATE OF ART SURVEYS OF OVERVIEWS ON MCDM/MADM METHODS
Decision-making is primarily a process that involves different actors: people, groups of people, institutions and the state. As a discipline, multi-criteria decision-making has a relatively short history. Since 1950s and 1960s, when foundations of modern multi-criteria decision-making methods have been laid, many researches devoted their time to ...

Hybridization of the Ishikawa Method with the PSI Method in an MCDM Environment
The Ishikawa method has been widely used as a qualitative tool for root cause analysis in engineering and quality management; however, its main limitation lies in the difficulty of quantitatively prioritizing the identified causes, which generates uncertainty in decision-making.
