Call for papers: "New Developments in PROMETHEE Methods"

For a special issue of the International Journal of Multicriteria Decision Making.

In the multicriteria decision aid community, PROMETHEE and GAIA have been developed for more than 30 years. Today, hundreds of applications have been published, several software packages are available, and new methodological developments (including group decision support, preference elicitation, sorting, etc.) have been proposed.

This special issue will carry revised and substantially extended versions of selected papers presented at the first International MCDA Workshop on PROMETHEE: Research and Case Studies, but we also strongly encourage researchers unable to participate in the conference to submit articles for this call.

Suitable topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Theoretical advances in the PROMETHEE and GAIA methods
• Axiomatisation
• Extensions for sorting and clustering
• Group decision support
• Rank reversal
• Preference elicitation
• PROMETHEE applications in
• environmental management
• business and financial management
• energy management
• manufacturing and assembly
• international cooperation
• PROMETHEE software packages
• Industrial case studies
