“…Care also needs to be taken in determining threshold values, which must relate specifically to each criterion and reflect the preferences of a decision maker. Procedures for choosing appropriate threshold values are addressed by Roger & Bruen (1998).…”

The selection of students is a complex decision making process, in which multiple selection criteria often need to be considered and where subjectiveness and imprecision are usually present, resulting that fuzzy and imprecise data should be used. This paper formulates the student selection process as a multicriteria decision analysis problem, concretely as a ranking problem, by using the ELECTRE III methodology to construct a fuzzy outranking relation, and then a genetic algorithm to exploit it and to obtain a ranking in decreasing order of preference. An empirical study of a real selection problem in the Universidad de Occidente in Mexico is presented. After performing calculations and obtaining the final ranking of compared alternatives, a sensitivity analysis was carried out. The study was supported with a new decision aid system for rank a finite set of multicriteria alternatives.

The paper presents our experiments regarding the demonstration of reliability and reproducibility of the technology for grafting and crosslinking blends of ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) and triallyl cyanurate polyfunctional monomer (TAC) by electron beam irradiation (EB). Blends based on EVA and TAC were irradiated with different doses of EB. The physical-mechanical properties of the irradiated samples were compared with those of samples obtained by classic crosslinking in the presence of peroxides. Experimental data obtained were processed and statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 13 and regression models were established. Depending on the dose of irradiation, characteristics of the blends were estimated with a probability of 95% based on established regression models. The results have shown that the technology is reproducible and reliable.

Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) can assist local decision processes towards selecting renewable energy systems as it is able to manage qualitative data and offers opportunities to integrate knowledge from local stakeholders. However, little experience is available regarding practical applications of MCDA in real decision processes in communities on their path towards a renewable energy supply. Within the "Bioenergy-Region Ludwigsfelde" project, an MCDA evaluation has been applied to a small village on its way to becoming a "bioenergy village". Here, MCDA has been combined with already established tools accompanying the process to becoming a "bioenergy village", such as planning workshops, citizens' meetings and best-practice trips. A comprehensive set of sustainability criteria was applied aimed at addressing the questions of local actors. An emphasis was placed on social criteria that comprise the perceived values of local impacts. In general, it was observed that MCDA provides many benefits for this application context. In particular, the group weighting using the SIMOS method demonstrated good results in the process. However, for real-world applications of MCDA, the challenge of data compilation in particular must be addressed.
