Goals of the Summer School
The aim of the school is to give to doctoral students/young researchers a state-of-the-art presentation of multiple criteria methods, applications and software. Multicriteria decision aid (MCDA) is a rapidly evolving domain which scientific developments are altogether based on fundamental sciences as mathematics, computer science, operation research, engineering, etc. and on social sciences and management science as sociology, management, political sciences. Interdisciplinarity needs a special involvement and will to insure full collaboration. The field of application is continuously expanding and social demands are numerous. The specific objectives of the school are:
- to exchange knowledge to provide an efficient approach of real life decision problems;
- to present recent developments in MCDA methods and practices;
- to present software developments;
- to analyze and discuss several applications of MCDA to complex evaluation situations.
Target audience
The ideal number of participants is about 40. The summer school will host: young researchers who wish to achieve a thesis on the subject or to carry on a personal work which uses Multicriteria decision aid or to in-depth their knowledge in this discipline in order to complete their training, professionals (staff members in Government and Industry, managers, consultants) who wish to familiarize with the tools on Multicriteria decision aid in view to use them in the frame of their work; It is very important that both categories described be present in order to favour the exchanges between people who are used to deal with decision problems in very different manners.Language
