It presents conceptual aspects of decision support applications in various areas including finance, vendor selection, construction, process management, water management and energy, agribusiness , production scheduling and control, and waste management. In addition to this, a special focus is given to methods of multi-criteria decision analysis. Decision making in organizations is a recurrent theme and is essential for business continuity.  Managers from various fields including public, private, industrial, trading or service sectors are required to make decisions. Consequently managers need the support of these structured methods in order to engage in effective decision making. This book provides a valuable resource for graduate students, professors and researchers of decision analysis, multi-criteria decision analysis and group decision analysis. It is also intended for production engineers, civil engineers and engineering consultants. 410 0$aDecision Engineering,$x1619-5736 606 $aEngineering economics 606 $aEngineering economy 606 $aOperations research 606 $aDecision making 606 $aComputer simulation 606 $aMathematical models 606 $aEngineering Economics, Organization, Logistics, Marketing$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T22016 606 $aOperations Research/Decision Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/521000 606 $aSimulation and Modeling$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I19000 606 $aMathematical Modeling and Industrial Mathematics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M14068 615 0$aEngineering economics. 615 0$aEngineering economy. 615 0$aOperations research. 615 0$aDecision making. 615 0$aComputer simulation. 615 0$aMathematical models. 615 14$aEngineering Economics, Organization, Logistics, Marketing. 615 24$aOperations Research/Decision Theory. 615 24$aSimulation and Modeling. 615 24$aMathematical Modeling and Industrial Mathematics. 676 $a620.001171 702 $aGuarnieri$b Patricia$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299844503321 996 $aDecision Models in Engineering and Management$91412393 997 $aUNINA
