Abstract:
Decision Making (DM) is one of the most important components of human cognition. In particular, the Multiple-Criteria DM (MCDM), is a composite form of DM evaluating options with conflicting goals and choosing the best solution among the existing ones. Following the fuzzy DM criterion of Bellman and Zadeh in 1970, several other methods have been developed by other researchers for DM in fuzzy environments. Here we present a parametric, MCDM method utilizing grey numbers as tools. This method improves an earlier approach of Maji and colleagues in 2002, who used the tabular representation of a soft set as a tool for parametric MCDM in a fuzzy environment. The method is also extended to cover cases of weighted DM and suitable examples are presented illustrating our results.

Full text
Abstract:
Despite the number of approaches established for Multiple Criteria Optimisation Problems, few of them have been developed for the decision making process. This research work proposes a new methodology for the solution of optimisation problems that involve multiple criteria emphasising the Decision-Maker's (DM's) preferences model and the use of evolutionary computation techniques and fuzzy logic. The use of genetic algorithms (GAs) is of vital importance to the development of this research. The use of operations research (OR) techniques and decision analysis is also considered vital. The aim of this project is to provide a definition of hybrid approaches that combine the strengths of GA and decision analysis. For this reason four hybrid models are proposed: 1. The GA-SEMOPS. 2. The fuzzy multiobjective genetic optimiser. 3. The GA-PROTRADE. 4. The interactive procedure for multiple objective optimisation problems. The main characteristics of these approaches are that they handle the DM's preferences in an interactive way and their objective functions are formulated using goal levels and surrogate functions. In order to demonstrate that these models can be used in different optimisation problems they have been applied to different case studies covering examples from environmental systems to land and human resource allocation. Each model was studied in depth, comparing the results found with those available in literature. In the majority of the cases, it was found that they performed better than existing methods. The investigations carried out showed that the proposed hybrid models can be considered as a very powerful tool for the solution of a wide variety of optimisation problems in situations from business to science and engineering.

Abstract:
In this study, an integrated solution methodology for a general discrete multi-criteria decision making problem is developed based on the well-known outranking method Promethee II. While the methodology handles the existence of interdependency between the criteria, it can also incorporate the prospect theory in order to correctly reflect the decision behavior of the decision maker. A software is also developed for the application of the methodology and some applications are performed and presented.

Hong, Ilyoo Barry. "Computerized group decision support for managerial choice/judgment tasks through facilitated preference formulation and utilization." Diss., The University of Arizona, 1989. http://hdl.handle.net/10150/184752.

Full text
Abstract:
In modern organizations where managers must constantly be dealing with an overload of information, it is often observed that participants in group decision processes either are not clearly aware of their specific preferences or that they are not capable of properly formulating those preferences. When this happens, inconsistent or incomplete expression of personal preferences and their use in decision making may lead to an unjustifiable outcome for the group. Due to this problem, the strengths and effectiveness of GDSS-supported group meetings may, in some situations, not be apparent. This dissertation develops a new approach to supporting group decision making, focusing on preference knowledge of individual participants in a group. A system architecture for the design of an MCDM (Multiple Criteria Decision Making) GDSS which facilitates the process of eliciting, formulating, utilizing, aggregating, and analyzing preferences for individuals within groups is presented. The architecture integrates multi-criteria decision making paradigms with a group decision support environment. A prototype has been developed in order to demonstrate the design feasibility of an architecture that centers around four phases of choice making: alternative generation, preference specification, alternative evaluation, and preference aggregation. The prototype is designed to support managerial choice and judgment processes in collaborative meetings. The intended problem domain of the model is semi-structured managerial decisions for which decision variables (attributes) can be represented in quantitative terms to some extent, yet for which evaluation of alternatives requires a high degree of intuition and personal analysis. The process of prototyping the proposed architecture and the results from a qualitative study have provided some instructive conclusions relating to MCDM GDSS design: (1) support for human choice strategies can be integrated into a GDSS, (2) appropriate management of preferences of group participants will facilitate collaborative decision processes, (3) hierarchical decomposition of a decision problem can provide structure to a problem and thereby reduce problem complexity, and (4) managerial decisions are appropriate problems to which the current approach can be applied.

Abstract:
Abstract Multi-Criteria Decision Methods (MCDM) as a complement to current practices for identifying an initial compromise solution to the problem of wind turbine micro-siting are proposed. MCDM deals with multiple objectives in decision-making. The main goal of these methods is to choose among several alternatives using decision criteria previously defined. The use of MCDM guarantees the identification of the alternative that better performs than all the others according to the selected criteria. After a literature review on available methods for micro-siting of offshore wind turbines in a specific location, and an introduction to the MCDM, the usefulness and potential of MCDM in siting floating wind turbines is highlighted. The MCDM methods can add new parameters to the floating wind farms’ layout process. The results of this study support the potential role of these methods as crucial tools to technology developers and decision-makers.

Abstract:
The authors introduce the general concepts, definitions and issues related to the use of Risk-informed decision-making (RIDM). These are structured processes which assist decision-makers when faced with high impact, complex decisions involving multiple objectives and the presence of uncertainty. They aim to ensure that decisions between competing alternatives are taken with an awareness of the risks associated with each option, and that all attributes of a decision are considered in an integrated manner. Motivations for the use of these techniques as a complement to more traditional deterministic approaches to risk assessment are provided. The RIDM processes adopted by NASA and by the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission are described in detail, with an analysis of commonalities and differences in approach.

Full text
Abstract:
Online is increasingly one of the main channels through which consumers interact with food businesses – and research and purchase journeys will often involve multiple channels (online, face-to-face, telephone). It can feel inconsistent that businesses are required to display FHRS ratings on their premises but not online. Indeed, Consumers could see no reason for a distinction between the information available at the physical premises to those online particularly given the increasing role of online food purchase. Consumers are already quite confident navigating the online landscape when it comes to researching and selecting restaurants and takeaways. They are accustomed to making the most of the information available online to make decisions around food. and are not necessarily demanding additional help. A range of criteria (including reviews; word of mouth) is used to help inform choices and decisions around food and hygiene in particular – but this information is vague, haphazard and unreliable. There is a lack of reliable, credible information about food hygiene in the online space. As many regard the FHRS as independent and credible there is some feeling that it would give online sites a “legitimacy” reviews and recommendations do not. Consumers make quick, off-the-cuff decisions when it comes to selecting and researching food. While they are familiar with and will make (at a glance) use of FHRS ratings on businesses’ physical premises, they are not actively seeking these out online where accessing ratings is currently a more involved process requiring navigation to another website. Consumers strongly support mandated FHRS online display and believe it would both help them make better decisions about food and encourage greater compliance by FBOs. FHRS ratings on FBO websites (and other online resources, like food aggregators) would be a useful addition to consumers’ repertoire of information. Consumers also feel FHRS online would have a positive impact on FBOs from a consumer perspective by making them more compliant. Consumers feel it is important that the ratings displayed online are trustworthy, as well as quick and easy to access. Consumers feel that FHRS ratings should be displayed as prominently online as they are on premises i.e. on the landing page. There is also a call for safeguards to be put in place to ensure FBOs can’t display ‘fake’ ratings.

Abstract:
The emergence of modern complex systems is often exacerbated by a proliferation of information and complication of technologies. Because current complex systems challenges can limit an organization's ability to efficiently handle socio-technical systems, it is essential to provide methods and techniques that count on individuals' systems skills. When selecting future employees, companies must constantly refresh their recruitment methods in order to find capable candidates with the required level of systemic skills who are better fit for their organization's requirements and objectives. The purpose of this study is to use systems thinking skills as a supplemental selection tool when recruiting prospective employees. To the best of our knowledge, there is no prior research that studied the use of systems thinking skills for recruiting purposes. The proposed framework offers an established tool to HRM professionals for assessing and screening of prospective employees of an organization based on their level of systems thinking skills while controlling uncertainties of complex decision-making environment with the fuzzy linguistic approach. This framework works as an expert system to find the most appropriate candidate for the organization to enhance the human capital for the organization.

Abstract:
Complex systems modelling is already implemented in critical policy areas such as climate change and health. It could also play an important role in the nuclear weapons sphere – by opening alternative pathways that may help mitigate risks of confrontation and escalation – but such modelling has yet to be fully embraced by policymakers in this community. By applying a complexity lens, policy- and decision-makers at all stages along the nuclear chain of command might better understand how their actions could have significant consequences for international security and peace. Nuclear decision-making is shaped by, and interacts with, the ever-changing international security environment and nuclear weapons policy. Tackling problems in the nuclear weapons policy field requires the implementation of ‘system of systems’ design principles, mathematical modelling approaches and multidisciplinary analysis. This research paper presents nuclear weapons decision-making as a complex endeavour, with individual decisions being influenced by multiple factors such as reasoning, intuition (gut feeling), biases and system-level noise. At a time of crisis, these factors may combine to cause risks of escalation. The authors draw on past examples of near nuclear use to examine decision-making in the nuclear context as a ‘wicked problem’, with multi-layered, interacting and constantly fluctuating elements.

Abstract:
The Women, Peace and Security or Gender Peace and Security (WPS/GPS) agenda has expanded significantly over the 20+ years of concerted efforts at many levels to expand the role of women in conflict resolution and peacebuilding. Yet many authors note that the expansion of international agreements and national plans to support greater women’s participation in decision-making have yet to translate into concrete changes. This report examines progress in promoting women’s meaningful participation in decision making processes in conflict prevention and peacebuilding, with a focus on changes since 2018. Evidence on women’s meaningful participation in decision-making tends to focus on a small range of measurable outcomes with some studies considering the outcomes of women’s involvement in those processes to determine the extent to which they might be ‘meaningful’. Few studies examine differential outcomes of such initiatives for different groups of women, and most data does not allow for the disaggregation of intersecting identities between gender, ethnicity, race, disability, migration status and other key factors. Evidence collected for this report suggests that policies and programmes seeking to support greater women’s participation in decision-making in conflict prevention and peacebuilding often struggle to address the broader structural factors that inhibit women’s empowerment. Tackling longstanding and often deeply embedded harmful social norms has proven challenging across sectors, and in conflict or post-conflict settings with highly complex social dynamics, this can be especially difficult. Many of the issues highlighted in the literature as hindering progress on the WPS agenda relate to cross-cutting issues at the heart of gender inequality. Multiple authors from within women’s movements in conflict and post-conflict settings emphasise the need for policies and programmes that support women to act as agents of change in their own communities and which amplify their voices rather than speak on their behalf. Recent achievements in South Sudan and the Pacific region are indicative of the potential of women’s movements to affect change in conflict prevention and peacebuilding and suggest progress is being made in some areas, though gender equality in these processes may be a long way off.
