“…With the utilization of MCDSSs, the suitability criteria were weighed by AHP and the determined weights assessed via expert choice software. In another study, Foroozesh, Monavari, Salmanmahiny, Robati, and Rahimi (2022) developed a practical framework consisting of GIS and MCDA to assess the development sustainability of Karaj, a city in the west of Tehran, Iran. In this research, the influencing factors on sustainable urban development took into consideration 7 criteria and 24 sub‐criteria—screened and selected based on the literature—and interviews with experts using the Delphi method.…”

Markazi Province has high potential for residential development due to its geopolitical location in the central part of Iran. This study investigated the possibility of residential area development in Markazi Province using a GIS‐based analytic network process. ArcGIS Version 10.6.1 and Super Decision Version 3.2 software were utilized for the zoning and assessment of criteria. All criteria, and their sub‐criteria, and limitations were gathered using national standards, literature review, and experts. According to the final residential area land suitability map, 16.74% of Markazi Province is highly or very highly suitable for urban development, even though 57.55% of the province's area (i.e., 30% of its current cities) are located in the exclusion zone. Results suggested that most parts of the province do not have desirable conditions for residential zoning. Further attention and deepened GIS monitoring over an extended period would be beneficial before future development is considered. In particular, the natural limitations in the region—such as slope—impede development potential. The study provides an alternative quantifiable and verifiable approach for sustainable urban planning from a land use policy perspective.

“…In the studies using MCDA, the widely employed methods include the Best-Worst Method (BWM) [43][44][45], Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) [46][47][48], Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluation (PROMETHEE)-I and II [49][50][51][52], VlseKriterijumska Optimizacija I KOmpromisno Resenje (VIKOR) [53][54][55], Elimination and Choice Translating Reality (ELECTRE) [56,57], Decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) [58][59][60], and Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) [61][62][63]. Further, the studies that deal with qualitative attributes utilize fuzzified MCDA approaches such as Fuzzy AHP [64,65], Fuzzy TOPSIS [66,67], and many others.…”

India has an ambitious target to promote clean energy penetration, but as of 2021, the electricity mix of India is dominated by coal to about 71%. Therefore, analyzing the clean energy potential and the ability of the individual states to entrench energy transition in the upcoming years will be supportive for policymakers. This study is propounded to assess the clean energy transition potential with a focused analysis on seven major power-producing states of India. These states include Maharashtra, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, and Andhra Pradesh. The clean energy transition potential assessment is performed by utilizing multi-criteria decision analysis methodologies such as the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) and Multi-Objective Optimization Method by Ratio Analysis (MOORA). Further, the analysis is performed against four major criteria that include high carbon energy resource dependency, low carbon energy resource dependency, clean energy potential, and policy support. Altogether, the assessment criteria include four primary level criteria and fourteen secondary level parameters. In order to reflect the significance of each parameter and criterion to the characteristics of clean energy transition potential, appropriate weightage is provided using the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The results indicate that Gujarat has the highest clean energy transition potential in both the multi-criteria decision analysis methods. On the other hand, Uttar Pradesh exhibited the least performance, and a complete energy transition to clean energy resources is less likely in this state. The rest of the states obtained intermediate ranking, and a comparative analysis between the two methods was also accomplished. This study suggests that India should focus on the clean energy policy with vigorous efforts on top-performing states which will effectively accelerate the power sector decarbonization.

In this study, the investigation of the decision-making strategy was used to select the alternative that was finally adopted in the crude oil refining process. This strategy was used to select the option that was ultimately implemented in the process. The Doura industrial refinery was the source of the information that was acquired for the analysis. The super decision software was applied in order to carry out an examination of the PDS components. After going through the process of refining, one can get the items on the following list: There are five main types of petroleum products, and they are: gasoline, gas oil, liquid gas, black oil, and white oil. Gasoline is the most common type of petroleum product. In order for the parameters to be optimally accommodated by the solution that is finally decided to be the most practical one, the analytic hierarchy process, also known as AHP, technique has been applied. This has been done in conjunction with the parameter determination system, or PDS. This has been done in order to reach the maximum potential level of productivity in the most efficient manner. As a result of the fact that this was the circumstance, a probe into the preliminary phase of the project was carried out, which in the end resulted in the expenditure of a grand total of 3969463 USD. This was determined by taking into account the costs of running the firm in addition to the prices of the raw materials that were utilized in the production process. In addition, the output of the refining process was not only dependent on the price and quantity of the product, but also on the amount of product that was actually sold. This meant that the cost and quantity of the product were not the only factors that determined the output. In order to determine what should be done during the process of making an estimate of what should be done in order to arrive at the response that was going to be the most advantageous taking everything into consideration, a mathematical model was applied as part of the process.
