“…While the united states scored at the top G8 countries and 2nd globally in the 2022 GII rankings, it scored 5th among G8 countries' 2021 HDI results and was ranked 21st Globally. From a knowledge advancement perspective and investing in research and development, the USA has scored at the top globally in terms of the total number of PhDs awarded in the field of science and engineering [24], which is also aligned with the highest globally in research and development reaching three-quarters of a trillion in 2022 followed by China of half a trillion [25]. This is aligned with the outcome of recent research [26], which concluded that North America is the best performer in terms of their performance of Global Innovation.…”

The current Human Development Index (HDI) has a promising potential to consider further dimensions, the technological dimensions in specific, in order to absorb various innovational aspects whenever human development is to be benchmarked among countries. Hence, the innovation-based HDI was developed herein using one of the well-known Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) techniques: the Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment of Evaluations II (PROMETHEE II) considering a mixture of technological criteria, including the Global Innovation Index (GII) itself. The G8 countries, as leading countries worldwide, were investigated in this regard in order to attain such a benchmarking attempt. The model was formulated using seven criteria selected from the World Bank (WB) Open Data (such as High-technology exports as a percentage of manufactured exports, Research and development (R&D) expenditure as a percentage of GDP, and Trademark applications, …, etc.) along with the GII, for the purpose of conducting an MCDM-based evaluation model for the G8 countries. The results of the developed index affirm that the ranking of the G8 countries has distinctly been changed as a consequence of considering technological and innovational aspects, compared to the original HDI (i.e., USA +4—from 5th to 1st; Canada −4, from 2nd to 6th). By utilizing MCDM methods (including PROMETHEE II), this paper also affirms that an infinite number of indexes can be developed in the future by employing a huge number of WB indicators with respect to various MCDM approaches. Hence, international communities are in need of setting up commonly accepted guidelines in order to facilitate having a unified prioritization (i.e., unified preference) regarding the potential criteria and/or indicators to be considered globally for better sustainable development.
