This book applies Multicriteria Decision Making (MCDM) tools and
techniques to problems in location analysis. It begins with a
generic model for MCDM and subsequently develops specific versions
of the technique for particular location problems. Throughout the
book, MCDM is understood to encompass all tools and techniques that
choose or rank existing or feasible solutions, including discrete
multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problems, which typically
include an attribute table that specifies the consequences of each
decision with regard to the given criteria, as well as
multi-objective linear problems (MOLPs), which incorporate all
objectives in a single optimization problem. The book is
organized as follows: the first four chapters introduce readers to
the basic tools and techniques used in single-objective
optimization, multicriteria decision making, location analysis, and
other tools, such as statistical regression and geographical
information systems. This is followed by ten chapters on model
applications, each of which introduces readers to a specific
location problem and applies one technique to solve it. The book is
then wrapped up in a closing chapter that looks at the location
process from a practitioner’s point of view. This book is
intended as a textbook for upper-undergraduate and master-level
courses on location analysis. It will also benefit decision-makers
who actually need to locate facilities.Â
