GIS‐Based Multiple‐Criteria Decision Analysis
Geography Compass, 2011Abstract Important and complex spatial decisions, such as allocating land to development or conservation‐oriented goals, require information and tools to aid in understanding the inherent tradeoffs. They also require mechanisms for incorporating and documenting the value judgements of interest groups and decision makers.

The application of correspondence analysis to multiple‐criteria decision making
Journal of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, 1992AbstractThe aim of this paper is to show how correspondence analysis can be a useful aid in multiple‐criteria decision making, particularly in the case of categorical criteria values. Under different types of input information, the technique is used to perform some preliminary analyses with a bonus of providing a simultaneous graphical representation ...

Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis
2014A probabilistic approach to multicriteria decision problems can take in due account the uncertainty that is inevitably present in preference evaluations. Translating the preference measurements according to different criteria into probabilities of being chosen as the best alternative has two advantages. First, it makes comparable preference evaluations

Heterogeneous Multiple Criteria Group Decision Analysis
2016The purpose of this chapter is to develop the deviation modeling method to deal with the heterogeneous MCGDM problems with incomplete weight information in which the decision information is expressed as real numbers, interval numbers, linguistic variables, IFNs, HFEs and HFLTSs.

Multiple criteria decision analysis - an integrated approach.
2001The field of multiple criteria decision analysis (MCDA) - also sometimes termed multiple criteria decision aid, or multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) - has developed rapidly over the past quarter century and in the process a number of divergent schools of thought have emerged. Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis: An Integrated Approach provides a

Problem Structuring and Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis
2010This chapter addresses two complementary themes in relation to problem structuring and MCDA. The first and primary theme highlights the nature and importance of problem structuring for MCDA and then reviews suggested ways for how this process may be approached. The integrated use of problem structuring methods (PSMs) and MCDA is one such approach; this

On applying multiple criteria decision analysis in embedded systems design
Design Automation for Embedded Systems, 2016We focus here on the application of multi critera decision analysis (MCDA) techniques in hardware/software partitioning activities to be used in the design and deployment of embedded systems. Our goal is to identify the best existing methods and tools suitable to support the approach we have taken for the partitioning process.

A Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) Software Selection Framework
2014 47th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, 2014With the gaining popularity of multiple criteria decision analysis (MCDA) among researchers and practitioners, a variety of software that implements sophisticated MCDA methods and techniques is now available. To address the issue of the missing methodological approach in MCDA software selection, especially the mismatch between the decision making ...

USING MULTIPLE CRITERIA DECISION ANALYSIS FOR SUPPORTING DECISIONS OF SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT
Journal of Environmental Science and Health, Part A, 2002Design of solid-waste management systems requires consideration of multiple alternative solutions and evaluation criteria because the systems can have complex and conflicting impacts on different stakeholders. Multiple criteria decision analysis (MCDA) has been found to be a fruitful approach to solve this design problem.

A Novel Normalization Method for Using in Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis
2019 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management (IEEM), 2019A typical multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) problem aims to rank a set of alternatives according to a set of criteria. The problem deals with selection of criteria, determination of criteria weights, normalization of criteria scores and aggregation of normalized criteria scores. The focus of this paper is on the normalization method.
