Important elements for the success of the PROMETHEE methods have been the development of numerous extensions and interactive software. The purpose of the paper is to show the evolution of the PROMETHEE methods and of their software implementation over time. Starting with PROMCALC and the first visual sensitivity analysis tools (Walking Weights), we stress less known extensions of the methodolog...

This research paper aims to give a new dimension to the decision maker by proposing a hybrid model of analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and preference ranking organisation method for enrichment evaluation (PROMETHEE) in 3PL selection. It uses an integrated approach of AHP-PROMTHEE as a selection methodology to select an efficient and requisite 3PL firm for a manufacturer. A relatively new and us...

Purpose Making techniques PROMETHEE, direction of research in this emerging field. Design/Methodology/Approach: literature related to MCDM techniques PROMETHEE, ELECTRE, VIKOR and TOPSIS. Literature has been segregated to understand various issues and work related to MCDM techniques PROMETHEE, ELECTRE, VIKOR and TOPSIS. A detailed review is used to sort out the literature and develop the resear...

This paper gives an overview of the PROMETHEE methodology for MCDM. It starts with general comments on Multicriterion problems, stressing that a Multicriterion problem cannot be treated without additional information related to the preferences and the priorities of the decision-makers. The information requested by PROMETHEE is particularly clear and easy to define for both decision-makers and a...

Promethee II is a prominent method for multicriteria decision aid (MCDA) that builds a complete ranking on a set of potential actions by assigning each of them a so-called net flow score. However, to calculate these scores, each pair of actions has to be compared, causing the computational load to increase quadratically with the number of actions, eventually leading to prohibitive execution tim...

The Multiple Criteria Decision Aiding (MCDA) has been a fast growing area of operations research and management science during the last decades, while the PROMETHEE (Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluations) is one of the well-known MCDA methods with ranking the alternatives from the best to the worst. In this paper, we propose a new outranking method called Prioritized...

Robust Ordinal Regression (ROR) supports Multiple Criteria Decision Process by considering all sets of parameters of an assumed preference model, that are compatible with preference information elicited set of parameters, respectively. In this paper, we propose an extension of ELECTRE and PROMETHEE methods to the case of the hierarchy of criteria, which was never considered before. Then, we ada...

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...

Abstract PROMETHEE is an important method for multi-criteria decision-making. Inspired by ensemble methods, this paper proposes an ensemble PROMETHEE II model, in which multiple preference functions are used to reduce the risk of choosing a particularly preference function. One example of competitiveness evaluation of the ports of Circum-Bohai-Sea is included to illustrate the proposed method. ...

Measuring quality of object oriented (OO) software is challenging mainly because we are facing a number of more or less dependent parameters that characterize the properties of good OO design. This paper proposes a combination of AHP and PROMETHEE for measuring object oriented software design. We have compared AHP and PROMETHEE performance for such purpose in the ISAHP 2011. The result suggeste...
