"This book introduces the steps of MCDM methods starting from problem formulation, model development, criteria weighting, and alternative scoring and finally to the ranking of the alternatives. The authors go on to explain the step-by-step processes of different MCDM methods for specific manufacturing environments, which allows readers to perceive the presented methodologies in a very clear way. It explains conceptual frameworks of how these methods are applied with special focus on their applicability and usefulness. The authors begin with an introduction to multi-criteria decision-making, followed by 29 MCDM methods and their applications. The final sections of the book describe helpful normalization techniques and criteria weight measurement techniques. The collection of diverse range of manufacturing applications and case studies presented in Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Methods in Manufacturing Environments will aid readers in applying cutting-edge MCDM methods to their own manufacturing projects. Intended as both a research and teaching tool, this book creates critical and logical thinking when applying MCDM methods for solving complex manufacturing decision-making problems. The volume will also be valuable for investigators working on real-life manufacturing decision-making problems and solutions in the domains of manufacturing, mechanical, industrial engineering, and related areas"--
