An approach for solving discrete alternative multiple criteria problems involving ordinal criteria
Köksalan, Murat; Karwan, Mark H.; Zionts, Stanley (Wiley, 1988-12)
The existence of ordinal criteria is a factor that complicates multiple criteria problems. In this article we develop an approach for the problem of choosing among discrete alternatives assuming that criteria are ordinal. The approach requires pairwise comparisons of alternatives by the decision maker. Based on these comparisons, presumably inferior alternatives are eliminated. Experience on randomly generated problems indicates that the approach usually chooses one of the most preferred alternatives and re...
Constructing a strict total order for alternatives characterized by multiple criteria: An extension
Dehnokhalaji, Akram; Korhonen, Pekka J.; Köksalan, Mustafa Murat; Nasrabadi, Nasim; Ozturk, Diclehan Tezcaner; Wallenius, Jyrki (Wiley, 2014-03-01)
The problem of finding a strict total order for a finite set of multiple criteria alternatives is considered. Our research extends previous work by us, which considered finding a partial order for a finite set of alternatives. We merge the preference information extracted from the preference cones and corresponding polyhedral sets, with the information derived from pairwise comparisons of two alternatives, yielding a preference matrix. This preference matrix is used as input to an integer programming model ...
Collaborative procurement among competing buyers
Keskinocak, Pinar; Savaşaneril Tüfekci, Seçil (Wiley, 2008-09-01)
Collaborative procurement emerged as one of the many initiatives for achieving improved inter-firm coordination and collaboration. In this article, we adopt a game-theoretical approach to study the interaction between two firms who procure jointly, but produce independently and remain competitors in a product market characterized by price-sensitive demand. We study the underlying economics behind collaborative procurement, examine the effects of collaboration on buyer and supplier profitability, and derive ...
An interactive procedure for selecting acceptable alternatives in the presence of multiple criteria
Ulu, C; Köksalan, Mustafa Murat (Wiley, 2001-10-01)
In this paper, we consider the multiple criteria decision-making problem of partitioning alternatives into acceptable and unacceptable sets. We develop interactive procedures for the cases when the underlying utility function of the decision maker is linear, quasiconcave, and general monotone. We present an application of the procedures to the problem of admitting students to the master's degree program at the Industrial Engineering Department, Middle East Technical University.

A heuristic approach to bicriteria scheduling
Köksalan, Mustafa Murat (Wiley, 1999-10-01)
We consider the problem of sequencing jobs on a single machine while minimizing a nondecreasing function of two criteria. We develop a heuristic procedure that quickly finds a good solution for bicriteria scheduling. The procedure is based on using several arcs in the criterion space that are representative of the possible locations of nondominated solutions. By sampling a small number of points on these arcs, a promising point is identified in the criterion space for each are. An efficient sequence in the ...
