| Course contents : | The multicriteria analysis aims at providing tools which make it possible to progress in the resolution of a problem of choice, decision or action where several criteria, often contradictory, must be taken into account. The first observation which must be made, when one tackles such a problem, is that there does not exist, in general, a solution which is the best simultaneously for all the criteria. The multicriteria methods provide solutions of better compromise. This course constitutes an introduction to the multicriteria analysis: - the modeling of the preferences - basic concepts of the multicriteria assistance to the decision - the theory of the multiattribute utility - outclassing and interactive methods - various questions - software of multicriteria analysis. Real case studies will be particularly analyzed within the framework of the management of the environment. | |||||
| ||||||
| Course objective : | The objective of the course is triple: 1. To show the importance of the multicriteria analysis in the formulation of decision-making; 2. To describe methods of multicriteria analysis, as an extension of the mono-criterion methods (like the linear programming); 3. To apply methods to management of the environment (for example, to optimize the treatment of waste water). | |||||
