Multiple Criteria Decision Making

The book discusses state-of-the-art applications and methodologies of the Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) techniques and approaches. The book focuses on critical literature, underlying principles of methods and models, solution approaches, testing and validation, real-world applications, case studies, etc. The book helps evaluate strategic decision-making through advanced MCDM and integrated approaches of AI, big data, and IoT to provide realistic and robust solutions to the current problems. The book will be a guideline to the potential MCDM researchers about the choice of approaches for dealing with the complexities and modalities. The contributions of the book help readers to explore new avenues leading towards multidisciplinary research discussions. This book will be interesting for engineers, scientists, and students studying/working in the related areas.
