摘要:

AbstractA brief historical overview of the development of multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) in the USSR during the last fifteen years is presented. Soviet MCDM research is reviewed. Several applications of MCDM methodology in the USSR are described. Long‐term trends in the research and application of MCDM in the Soviet Union are discusse

摘要:

AbstractIt is shown that whenXis an arbitrary finite subset of ann‐factor product set and preference relations on each factor or criterion are assumed only to be asymmetric, efficient (undominated) points always exist in the setPof probability distributions onXwhen the preference relations are extended to probability distributions on the factors according to SSB utility theory. Thus, arbitrary finite structures and potentially cyclic preferences do not present a problem for the theory of efficiency under the convexification‐extension proced

摘要:

AbstractA large number of multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) models have evolved over the past decade. This field now seems to have reached a stage of maturity. However, the managerial community has not yet extensively adopted these models in solving practical decision problems. The present article focuses on integrating the MCDM models within the decision support system (DSS) framework to encourage greater use of these models. A DSS framework and the criteria used for the choice of a model is discussed. Based on these criteria MCDM models generally used in the marketing field are evaluated. The possibility of using a mixture of MCDM models within the DSS framework is also explored. Following this, the role of the MCDM models in DSS is delineated. It is argued that, within the problem‐solving process, the confluence of MCDM models and DSS plays a vital role in developing high‐quality soluti

摘要:

AbstractThis article develops a methodology for testing constant exchange risk properties and identifying an appropriate form for a decision maker's utility function. These risk properties characterize six different utility functions which are sums of products of polynomials and exponential functions. Such functional forms are commonly used in decision analysis applications. The practical advantage of this methodology is that these constant exchange risk properties eliminate the usual arbitrariness in the selection of a parametric utility function and often reduce the data requirements for subsequent estimation. The procedure is straightforward to apply. The decision maker need only provide certainty equivalents for two‐outcome gambles and determine the more‐preferred gamble in paired comparisons. The technical details of the procedure can be handled by interactive computer softw

摘要:

AbstractA dynamic and visual “free‐search” type of interactive procedure for multiple‐objective linear programming is presented. The method enables a decision maker to freely search any part of the efficient frontier by controlling the speed and direction of motion. The objective function values are represented in numeric form and as bar graphs on a display. The method is implemented on an IBM PC/1 microcomputer and is illustrated using a multiple‐objective linear‐programming model for managing disposal of sewage sludge in the New York Bight. Some other applications are also briefl

摘要:

AbstractThe existence of ordinal criteria is a factor that complicates multiple criteria problems. In this article we develop an approach for the problem of choosing among discrete alternatives assuming that criteria are ordinal. The approach requires pairwise comparisons of alternatives by the decision maker. Based on these comparisons, presumably inferior alternatives are eliminated. Experience on randomly generated problems indicates that the approach usually chooses one of the most preferred alternatives and requires a small number of pairwise comparisons.

摘要:

AbstractIn this article we present an approach to determine the initially unspecified weights in an additive measurable multiattribute value function. We formulate and solve a series of nonlinear programming problems which (1) incorporate whatever partial information concerning the attribute weights or overall relative value of alternatives the decision maker chooses to provide, yet (2) yield a specific set of weights as a result. Although each formulation is rather easily solved using the nonlinear programming software GINO (general interactive optimizer), solutions in closed form dependent on a single parameter are also provided for a number of these problems.

摘要:

AbstractThis article deals with optimization problems that have some uncertain parameters with unknown probabilities. The article proposes a strategy of transferring the system's uncertainty associated with these optimization problems into a norm or a set of norms that is added to the original objective function(s) within a multiobjective framework. The uncertainty sensitivity index method (USIM) proposed by Haimes and Hall [1977] is extended to several general cases. A robust algorithm is developed to guarantee an ideal solution for cases where the nominal value of the uncertain parameter is itself an uncertain variable. A design problem is also addressed to identify the best‐compromise values of the system's parameters by integrating the USIM with the envelope approac
