Cutting-Edge Research Topics on Multiple Criteria Decision Making

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Cutting-Edge Research Topics on Multiple Criteria Decision Making, MCDM 2009, held in Chengdu/Jiuzhaigou, China, in June 2009.

The 72 revised full papers presented together with 49 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 350 submissions. The papers are organized in workshops on evolutionary methods for multi-objective optimization and decision making; text mining, semi-structured, web, or multimedia data; knowledge management and business intelligence; data mining based extension theory; intelligent knowledge management; meta-synthesis and complex systems; risk correlation analysis and risk measurement; optimization-based data mining method and applications; risk analysis with multiple criteria decision making; applications of decision theory and method to financial decision making; hybrid MCDM techniques for problems-solving.

MCDM 2009, the 20th International Conference on Multiple-Criteria Decision M- ing, emerged as a global forum dedicated to the sharing of original research results and practical development experiences among researchers and application developers from different multiple-criteria decision making-related areas such as multiple-criteria decision aiding, multiple criteria classification, ranking, and sorting, multiple obj- tive continuous and combinatorial optimization, multiple objective metaheuristics, multiple-criteria decision making and preference modeling, and fuzzy multiple-criteria decision making. The theme for MCDM 2009 was "New State of MCDM in the 21st Century." The conference seeks solutions to challenging problems facing the development of multiple-criteria decision making, and shapes future directions of research by prom- ing high-quality, novel and daring research findings. With the MCDM conference, these new challenges and tools can easily be shared with the multiple-criteria decision making community. The workshop program included nine workshops which focused on different topics in new research challenges and initiatives of MCDM. We received more than 350 submissions for all the workshops, out of which 121 were accepted. This includes 72 regular papers and 49 short papers. We would like to thank all workshop organizers and the Program Committee for the excellent work in maintaining the conference's standing for high-quality papers.
