About this book

Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis: State of the Art Surveys provides survey articles and references of the seminal or state-of-the-art research on MCDA. The material covered ranges from the foundations of MCDA, over various MCDA methodologies (outranking methods, multiattribute utility and value theories, non-classical approaches) to multiobjective mathematical programming, MCDA applications, and software. This vast amount of material is organized in 8 parts, with a total of 25 chapters. More than 2000 references are listed.

Reviews

Roman Slowinski (Poznan University of Technology, Editor of EJOR): "The Editors are to be congratulated for an excellent work. They attracted the most representative authors and contributors for contemporary MDCA. I have never seen such a complete and up-to-date book on MCDA. It will be a basic reference for the next decade."
