PROMETHEE-GDSS revisited: applications so far and new developments

摘要

The PROMETHEE method, developed by Brans (1982) and Brans and Mareschal (1994) has been extended to be used in the group decision context (as described in Macharis et al., 1998). PROMETHEE has thus been embedded in GDSS and has been widely used in various decision contexts. The aim of the paper is to analyse how PROMETHEE-GDSS has been applied and which further developments can enhance its applicability. The analysis is structured along a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT) analysis and on the basis of this analysis recommendations are given.
