We invited authors to submit their theoretical or experimental research presenting engineering and economic problem solution models dealing with the symmetry or asymmetry of different types of information. The issue gained interest in the research community and received many submissions. After rigorous scientific evaluation by editors and reviewers, nine papers were accepted and published. The authors proposed different MADM and MODM solution models as integrated tools to find a balance between the components of sustainable global development, to find a symmetry axis concerning goals, risks, and constraints to cope with the complicated problems. Most approaches suggested decision models under uncertainty, combining the usual decision-making methods with interval-valued fuzzy or rough sets theory, also Z numbers. The application fields of the proposed models involved both problems of technological sciences and social sciences. The papers cover three essential areas: engineering, economy, and management. We hope that a summary of the Special Issue as provided here will encourage a detailed analysis of the papers included in the Printed Edition.rough setsinterval type-2 fuzzy set (IT2FS)resources distributionthe criteria of the weightspublic managementStep-wise Weight Assessment Ratio Analysis (SWARA)multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM)symmetry of the methodquadcoptertransaction costfull fuzzy environmentdual generalized geometric Bonferroni mean (DGGBM) operatordata loggerinformation theorycontrol systemsalvage valuenonlinear dynamicspattern formationoscillationsstabilityPythagorean fuzzy setFAHPfuzzy setsgroup decision-makinggeneralized Bonferroni mean (GBM) operatorprobabilistic systems analysiseconomic decisions2-tuple linguistic neutrosophic numbers set (2TLNNSs)evaluating the quality of distant coursessubjective weightsZ-numbersgreen supplier selectiondual generalized Bonferroni mean (DGBM) operatornormal cloudthrustsensorneutrosophic numbersMCDMBayes’ theoremoptimal dividendlogisticsmeasurementhybrid MCDMcombining the weightsdata envelopment analysiscriteria weightsmultiple attribute decision making (MADM)IDOCRIWexcess-of-loss reinsurancefuzzy efficiencymultiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM)MCGDMtransportbackward cloud transformationengineering problemsrough ARAScapital injectionperformanceBonferroni mean (BM) operatorgreen supply chain managementpopulation sizeshybrid problem solution modelscriteria weight assessmentAntuchevi?ien?
