Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Analytic Hierarchy/Network Processes (AHP/ANP), proposed by Prof. Thomas Saaty, are leading methods for multiple criteria decision analysis (MCDA). Prof. Saaty also developed the Model BOCR, where B stands for Benefits, O for opportunities, C for costs, and R for risks. B and O represent favorable aspects for an alternative, and C and R are unfavorable. Furthermore, B and C are certain aspects, and O and R are uncertain. Therefore, the application of AHP/ANP with Model BOCR allows the elicitation of mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive criteria.
This Special Issue (SI) will be primarily driven to practical papers, bringing case studies from real-world applications. However, as this is not a specific requirement, methodological or theoretical contributions will also be considered for publication in the SI. For instance, hybrid applications of AHP/ANP with other MCDA methods will be very welcome in this SI.
AHP/ANP have been proven to be flexible, with successful applications in unlimited fields. Manuscripts are expected to present applications in Education, Entrepreneurship, Government, Healthcare, Industry, Innovation, Social responsibility, Supply chain management, and Sustainability, to name a few.
