Description: Presents more than a dozen different methods for solving multiple criteria decision problems. Each method is briefly described and illustrated and provides at least one application from the literature. This briefing will provide you with some ideas of how the methods work and illustrate the usability of these methods in real decision problems.

The first four chapters show you how the multiple criteria methods differ by the type of problem they are designed to solve, the timing of decision maker information, the type of information required from the decision maker, and the availability of supporting software. The last chapter provides further discussions and comparisons that guide you in making the appropriate choice and in the use of various multiple criteria methods.
