| Purpose and history | Multicriteria decision aiding is an important branch of Operational Research. Beyond the exchanges and meetings which already exist by means of international conferences and publications in scientific journals, the objectives of the working group are the following:
The working group was created at EURO I (Brussels, 1975). Since that time, two meetings are held each year, in Spring and Autumn. The 60 meetings have been organised by members from 16 different countries. |
| Members | The current membership is 281. In 1975, the group consisted of 29 members from 5 different countries. Among the present members, 42 were already members in 1980. Currently, 38 countries are represented. During recent years, each meeting attracted 5 to 20 new members (with an average of 13). These figures show how lively the group is terms of meetings and participation. |
