Various software tools implementing Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) methods have appeared over the last decades. Although MCDA methods share common features, most of the implementing software have been developed independently from scratch. Majority of the tools have a proprietary storage format and exchanging data among software is cumbersome. Common data exchange standard would be u...

In this paper, we propose a hybrid fuzzy decision making approach, combining elements of fuzzy-ELECTRE and Fuzzy-TOPSIS, towards a new ranking procedure. The main objective of FETOPSIS is to offer rankings with good alternative discriminatory power to decision makers (DMs). This research work was motivated by a real case study in which multiple attribute decision making techniques were used to ...

Natural disasters impose enormous risks on human living and the environment. Researchers have given more attention to evaluating these in context of disasters. Studies focus risk assessment only one natural for regions. However, a should be conducted that includes all-natural This is dealt with by 8 different provinces Aegean region Turkey work. A case data (1990-2020) such as earthquake, fire,...

Given a finite set of alternatives, the sorting (or assignment) problem consists in the assignment of each alternative to one of the pre-defined categories. In this paper, we are interested in multiple criteria sorting problems and, more precisely, in the existing method ELECTRE TRI. This method requires the elicitation of preferential parameters (importance coefficients, thresholds, profiles,....

This paper proposes a multicriteria model for assessing public bus operation systems based on the ELECTRE method in the city of Eskisehir, Turkey. In this specific problem, public and expert opinions towards the privatization of urban bus lines were collected through a comprehensive survey to determine the best operation system; either by the local authority or private operators. The data colle...

In the literature on MCDM, many methods have been proposed in order to sort alternatives evaluated on several attributes into ordered categories. Most of them were proposed on an ad hoc basis. Using tools from conjoint measurement, this paper takes a more theoretical approach to these sorting methods. We provide an axiomatic analysis of the partitions of alternatives into two categories that ca...

In this paper we describe the data for five real applications of multicriteria methods in the context of environmental problems. The applications are: (1) the choice of a solid waste management system for the Uusimaa region, Finland, (2) for the Jämsä region, Finland, (3) the Oulu region, Finland, (4) locating a waste treatment facility in the Savonlinna region, Finland, and (5) choosing among ...

Nowadays, the impacts of transportation systems on the environment and the society are undeniable. Considering the great environmental awakenings at the planetary level and the discounted growth of the carriage of goods per transportation mode within the European Union, the distribution and haulage companies must start to take measures to limit their impacts. We aim to build a multi-criteria de...

This study investigates how the priority rankings for dam construction sites vary with multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) techniques and generation approaches for incomplete information. Strategic environmental assessment (SEA) seeks to recommend sustainable dam construction sites based on their environmental and ecological impacts in a long-term plan for dam construction (LPDC) in South Kor...
