The objective of this special issue is to publish recent advances in methods and applications of MCDA (multicriteria decision aid). We welcome high-quality papers from researchers and practitioners engaged in using MCDA methods, in isolation or combined with other techniques, to assist individuals or groups in their decision making.
Both practical and theoretical papers are welcome. For papers of a practical nature we expect innovative applications which provide important insights into the way MCDA methods can be deployed and which provide in-depth reflections about the intervention.
The issue will carry revised and substantially extended versions of selected papers presented at the 76th Meeting of the European Working Group on MCDA (held in Portsmouth from the 13th to 15th September 2012), but we also strongly encourage researchers unable to participate in the conference to submit papers for this call.
Suitable topics include but are not limited to:
- Conflict resolution
- Environmental applications
- General resource allocation and optimisation
- Group decision making
- Disaster prevention
- Production decisions
- Multicriteria clustering
- Applications in transport
Submissions deadline: 31 January, 2013
