Fuzzy Multiple Objective Decision Making

Focusing on the methodologies and applications of this eld, Fuzzy

Multiple Objective Decision Making presents mathematical tools

for complex decision making. The rst part of the book introduces

the most popular methods used to calculate the solution of multi-

objective programming in the eld of multiple objective decision

making (MODM). The authors describe multi-objective evolutionary

algorithms; expand de novo programming to changeable spaces,

such as decision and objective spaces; and cover network data

envelopment analysis. The second part focuses on various

applications, giving readers a practical, in-depth understanding of

MODM.

A follow-up to the authors’ Multiple Attribute Decision Making:

Methods and Applications, this book guides you in using MODM

methods to make effective decisions. It also extends your knowledge

of the methods and provides you with the foundation to publish

papers in operations research and management science journals.

Features

• Discusses popular concepts and theories of MODM, such as

multi-objective evolutionary algorithms and goal programming

and compromise solutions

• Shows how de novo programming can reallocate or reshape

available resources to eliminate trade-offs between objectives

• Introduces multi-stage and multi-level programming for solving

network and hierarchical MODM problems

• Presents data envelopment analysis for evaluating the

efciency of decision-making units based on input and output

data

• Covers many applications of MODM, including strategic

alliances, supply chain management, portfolio selection,

optimal planning and design of systems, and production
