Chapter 1 presents the major components and modeling of MCDA problems. The hierarchy of the criteria is the subject of Chapter 2. The most important methods for solving discrete problems are introduced in Chapter 3, and their counterparts for solving continuous problems are discussed in Chapter 4. Social choice methodology is often used if there are several stakeholders with conflicting priorities in the decision making process when some of the criteria are hard to or cannot be quantified. Chapter 5 is devoted to this subject. Conflict resolution concepts and procedures are introduced in Chapter 6 including symmetric and non-symmetric bargaining. All models and methods discussed in the first six chapters assume complete and perfect knowledge of all criteria and constraints. However, in reality most decision making problems are faced with uncertain environmental and economical conditions. Chapter 7 introduces the main concepts of modeling uncertainty and the corresponding solution methodology.
