Multi-period differences of technical and financial performances are analyzed by comparing five North African railways over the period 1990–2004. A first approach is based on Malmquist DEA TFP index for measuring total factors productivity change, decomposed into efficiency change technological changes. multiple criteria analysis also performed using PROMETHEE II method ARGOS software. These me...

In entrepreneurship management, the evaluation and selection of startups for acceleration programs, especially technology-based startups, are crucial. This process involves considering numerical qualitative criteria such as sales, prior startup experience, demand validation, product maturity. To effectively rank based on varying importance these criteria, a fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making ...

With increasing concern toward environmental protection, enterprises have become more and more responsible for their products reducing pollution and damage. Green supply chain management (GSCM) considers a systematic and integrated approach for companies to maintain their sustainability and competitiveness in the market. Among issues of GSCM, green supplier selection is an important issue in im...

Abstract Measuring the level of sustainability taking into account many contributing aspects is a challenge. In this paper, we apply multiple criteria decision aiding framework, namely, hierarchical-SMAA-PROMETHEE method, to assess environmental, social, and economic 20 European cities in period going from 2012 2015. The application method innovative for following reasons: (i) it permits study ...

Optimal design problem are widely known by their multiple performance measures that are often competing with each other. In this paper, an optimal multiproduct batch chemical plant design is presented. The design is firstly formulated as a multiobjective optimization problem, to be solved using the well suited non dominating sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II). The NSGA-II have capability to ac...

This paper presents a multicriteria decision model for selecting a portfolio of information system (IS) projects, which integrates strategic and organizational view within a multicriteria decision structure. The PROMETHEE V method, based on outranking relations is applied, considering the c-optimal concept in order to overcome some scaling problems found in the classical PROMETHEE V approach. T...

PROMETHEE and GAIA belong to the family of multi-criteria outranking methods. A key aspect of their successful application to real problems relies on the existence of user-friendly software implementing these approaches. Following PROMCALC and DECISION LAB 2000, D-Sight is the third generation of PROMETHEE and GAIA based applications. It offers multiple interactive and visual tools that help th...
