Multiple-Criteria Decision Making Concepts, Techniques, and Extensions
Multiple-Criteria Decision Making Concepts, Techniques, and Extensions by Po-Lung Yu is a comprehensive resource published by Springer US on April 25, 2012. This softcover reprint of the original 1st edition from 1985 spans 402 pages and is presented in English. The book emerges from formal graduate courses in multiple-criteria decision making (MCDM) taught by the author at various universities since 1972, aiming to provide readers with a systematic overview of MCDM concepts and techniques at an introductory level.
Readers will find a detailed exploration of the human decision-making process alongside the techniques of MCDM, enhancing their understanding and application of these methods. The content is designed for those with a mathematical background equivalent to a course in operations research or optimization theory, making it accessible for individuals trained in linear and nonlinear programming. This edition serves as a foundational text for those interested in the intersection of computer science and decision-making methodologies.
Official synopsis Publisher
This book is an outgrowth of formal graduate courses in multiple-criteria decision making (MCDM) that the author has taught at the University of Rochester, University of Texas at Austin, and University of Kansas since 1972. The purpose is, on one hand, to offer the reader an integral and systematic view of various concepts and techniques in MCDM at an “introductory” level, and, on the other hand, to provide a basic conception of the human decision mechanism, which may improve our ability to apply the techniques we have learned and may broaden our llJ.ind for modeling human decision making. The book is written with a goal in mind that the reader should be able to assimilate and benefit from most of the concepts in the book if he has the mathematical maturity equivalent to a course in operations research or optimiz ation theory. Good training in linear and nonlinear programming is sufficient to digest, perhaps easily, most of the concepts in the book.
