Advances in multiple criteria decision making for sustainability: Modeling and applications

Abstract

With the surging complexity of real-world problems in important domains such as sustainability, there is a need to leverage advanced modern computational methods or intelligent techniques to support decisions or policy-making. In this Special Issue, 15 selected and formally peer-reviewed papers contribute their novelty and findings, by applying various advanced decision methods or computational techniques to resolve different sustainability problems. Despite the innovations of the proposed models, most of the selected papers involve domain expert's opinions and knowledge with in-depth discussions. These case studies enrich the practical contributions of this Special Issue.
