Several decision making problems with multiple decision makers in a hierarchical decision making scenario can be best described using multilevel optimization problem. Different organizational structure adapt a hierarchical decision making system where each decision maker controls parts of the...

This article describes the use of the constructivist multicriteria decision aid (MCDA-C) model as an intervention instrument, using a case study of a fertilizer industry located at a Brazilian maritime port terminal, with the goal of developing a customized performance evaluation model to help...

In order to find an optimal and time consistent cooperative path in multicriteria multistage game the minimal sum of relative deviations rule is introduced. Using this rule one can construct a vector-valued characteristic function that is weakly superadditive. The sustainability of the...

With the progress in intelligent transportation systems, a great interest has been directed towards traffic sensors information for flow estimation problems. Nevertheless, there is a great challenge to locate such traffic sensors on a network to attain the maximum benefits from them. Considering...

Current environmental and health concerns encourage a shift towards more sustainable diets. A variety of options are currently being investigated to achieve the food security of alternative-to-meat dietary proteins. The food security of alternative to meat proteins will require attention to the...

In this paper, instead of the classical approach to the multi-criteria location selection problem, a new approach was presented based on selecting a portfolio of locations. First, the indices affecting the selection of maintenance stations were collected. The K-means model was used for...

Circular Economy (CE) aims to maintain the value of products, components, materials, and resources in the economy for as long as possible. Current end of life (EoL) product circularity decision-making methods are focused on technical and economic factors neglecting other crucial areas such as...

This paper presents an application of interactive fuzzy goal programming to the nonlinear multi-objective reliability optimization problem considering system reliability and cost of the system as objective functions. As the decision maker always have an intention to produce highly reliable...

The supplier selection and order allocation are two key strategic decisions in purchasing problem. The review presented in this paper focuses on the supplier selection problems (SSP) and order allocation from year 2000 to 2017 in which a new structure and classification of the existing research...
