Ranking and Prioritization for Multi-indicator Systems Introduction to Partial Order Applications /

Ranking issues are found everywhere. For example, bank houses, universities, towns, watersheds etc. are ranked. But also assessment of students in one discipline is a ranking. This last example is trivial, because we have only one criterion, namely the quality of the student in that discipline. In t...
