This book focuses on decision-making problems in engineering. It
investigates the ranking aggregation problem and the related
features, such as input/output data, simplification hypotheses,
importance hierarchy of experts. In addition to a well-structured
overview of several interesting, consolidated methodological
approaches, it presents innovative approaches that can also be
applied profitably in other fields. The fascinating selection of
topics included is based on research that has been developed in the
past twenty years. The descriptions are supported by figures,
tables, flowcharts, diagrams, examples and practical case studies.
The book is an ideal resource for engineering academics,
practitioners, technicians and students, who do not necessarily
have an in-depth knowledge of decision-making. It is also a
thought-provoking read for engineers and academics looking for
innovative ways to improve engineering processes in a variety of
fields, such as conceptual design, quality improvement, reliability
engineering. "Today, rankings are exercised in all spheres of life,
products are ranked on Amazon and similar platforms; services such
as restaurants and hotels on platforms such as TripAdvisor; and
other services such as lectures or even medical treatment on
different specialized platforms. We often make our daily decisions
based on these rankings. The quality of our decisions depends on
our ability to select appropriate methods to fit the context and
needs. We need to be familiar with the theory and practice of these
methods to make them useful. To this purpose, this book is an
important addition to the bookshelves of academics and
professionals, not only from engineering. The connection between
theory and practice is weaved throughout the book, making it useful
for practitioners also." Prof. Yoram Reich, Full Professor and Head
of Systems Engineering research Initiative at Tel Aviv University
(Israel), Editor-in-Chief of "Research in Engineering Design"
