The information and communication technology (ICT) industry is one of the most capital intensive among the high-technology industries. ICT business analysis, especially after the industry deregulation, has become a difficult task. Traditional quantitative cost-benefit analysis concerning...

The increasing intensity of competition, the development of more sophisticated tools for decision-making, and advances in information technology (IT) have led organisations to search for more efficient and effective ways to make key decisions. To succeed in rapidly changing competitive business...

Effectively managing food supply chains is critical for ensuring food security and safety. Identifying and prioritizing the criteria affecting food supply chain performance is imperative to manage uncertainty and avoid undesirable consequences in Supply Chain Management (SCM). This study aims to...

IANUS is a method for aiding public decision-making that supports efforts towards sustainable development and has a wide range of application. IANUS stands for Integrated Assessment of Decisions uNder Uncertainty for Sustainable Development. This paper introduces the main features of IANUS and...

The question we address is how robust solutions react to changes in the uncertainty set. We prove the location of robust solutions with respect to the magnitude of a possible decrease in uncertainty, namely when the uncertainty set shrinks, and convergence of the sequence of robust solutions. In...

Entropy plays a vital role within fuzzy set theory as it quantifies the level of uncertainty present in the data. This study proposes a novel entropy measure tailored for Picture Fuzzy Sets (PIFS). This entropy measure is formulated based on the axioms developed for PIFS entropy, ensuring its...

The goal programming (GP) is a well-known approach applied to multi-criteria decision making (M-DM). It has been used in many domains and the literature offers diverse extensions of this procedure. On the other hand, so far, some evident analogies between M-DM under certainty and scenario-based...
