Nowadays, societal and technological trends demand the management of large scale of
decision makers in group decision-making (GDM) contexts. In a large-scale GDM, decision …

In large-scale group decision making (GDM), noncooperative behavior in the consensus
reaching process (CRP) is not unusual. For example, some individuals might form a small …

In this paper, we present a consensus model for multiperson decision making (MPDM)
problems with different preference structures based on two consensus criteria: 1) a …

Two processes are necessary to solve group decision making problems: A consensus
process and a selection process. The consensus reaching process is necessary to obtain a …

The group decision-making framework with linguistic preference relations is studied. In this
context, we assume that there exist several experts who may have different background and …

In the multiple-attribute group decision-making (MAGDM), the decision objective is to obtain
a complete ranking of the alternatives from best to worst. In the real world, however …

Most group decision making (GDM) problems based on linguistic approaches use
symmetrically and uniformly distributed linguistic term sets to express experts' opinions …

The current complexity of supply chains (SC) activities requires the need for coordination
between supply chains partners to maximize the efficiency. Considered by practitioners as …

Consensus forming is a critical process in the present day computer assisted group decision-
making (GDM) scenario. Most of the GDM problems are of strategic dimensions and get …

A novel idea and architecture of a group decision support system for reaching consensus in
a group of individuals (agents) is proposed. The core of the system is the preferences …
