A Decision-Support Framework for Structuring and Reducing Large Multi-Objective Solution Sets via Clustering: An Application to Proton Therapy

This paper proposes a four-stage decision-support framework for structuring and reducing large multi-objective solution sets into compact and interpretable collections of representative alternatives. The methodology combines: (Phase 1) systematic solution generation through extended goal programming and structured preference exploration; (Phase 2) robustness-aware enrichment and profiling under weight sensitivity analysis; (Phase 3) filtering and dominance-based reduction … Read more

The use of multi-criteria decision-making methods in project portfolio selection: a literature review and future research directions

In most project portfolio selection (PPS) situations, the presence of multiple attributes and decision-maker preference is inevitable. As Multi-criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) methods provide a framework well-suited to deal with these challenges in PPS problems, the use of MCDA methods in real-life PPS problems has increased in recent years. This paper provides a comprehensive literature … Read more
