Multiple criteria decision making and decision support systems — Guest editor's introduction

摘要

Integration of MCDM with DSS brings benefit to both fields. MCDM tools are useful in identifying and evaluating incompatible alternatives for DSS, while DSS can implement MCDM approaches and help maintain and retrieve MCDM models. Over the years, MCDM has made considerable contribution to the development of various DSS subspecialties. This special issue on Multiple Criteria Decision Making and Decision Support Systems consists of 9 selected papers from the 20th International Conference on Multiple Criteria Decision Making. The guest editors highlight the key ideas and contributions of the papers in the special issue.
