“…The preference ranking organization method for the enrichment evaluation (PROMETHEE) technique, first created by Brans et al, aims to provide an in-depth ranking of same-class alternatives based on their comparable features/parameters, where each parameter is assigned a different importance level [16]. The PROMETHEE approach process is detailed in Appendix A [17][18][19].…”

Heart failure is a progressive disease that leads to high mortality rates if left untreated, and inotropes are a class of drugs used to treat a type of heart failure where patients have reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). This study aims to utilize the Fuzzy-Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluation (F-PROMETHEE), an effectively used multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) technique. To analyze the characteristics of the most often used inotropes for acute HFrEF and chronic HFrEF, we use the same parameters set with distinct importance factors and aims for each property and, therefore, mathematically demonstrate the strengths and weaknesses of each inotrope alternative. As a result, a detailed ranking list for each HFrEF class was obtained, with supplementary information on how each parameter contributed to the ranking of each inotrope. From these results, it was concluded that the F-PROMETHEE method is applicable for evaluating the risks and benefits of various inotropes to determine a starting point for treating an average patient when making a quick decision without complete patient data. As demonstrated in this study, it is possible to easily use the same data set and only change some preference parameters according to individual needs to produce patient-specific results. In this study, we showed that creating a decision-making system that mathematically assists clinical specialists with their decision-making process is feasible.

Building façades represent one of the most critical elements affecting a city’s quality of life, and they impact the country’s economic income by attracting visitors. However, performance data on façades are limited or incomplete, making it challenging for designers to evaluate their effectiveness in energy efficiency, thermal performance, durability, and other key performance metrics. This paper presents a comprehensive framework for evaluating and prioritizing material selection criteria in building cladding, establishing the relationship with available alternatives, and integrating decision-making processes with Building Information Modeling (BIM) to automate the Value Engineering (VE) concept. The material selection criteria from the literature and international standard manual were identified, and their criteria weight was then evaluated using SWARA (stepwise weight assessment ratio analysis). Additionally, WASPAS (weighted aggregated sum product assessment) was utilized to evaluate the alternative cladding materials based on the defined criteria and their associated quality weight (QW). The life cycle cost (LCC) of the alternatives was computed. The VE was computed and then ranked based on the QW and LCC of the alternatives. The procedure was connected to the BIM model to automate the assessment, specifying the necessary parameters and the BIM computation. A case study of an office building façade was conducted to validate the proposed framework. In this study, the significant criteria were durability, wind load resistance, and thermal insulation. This approach enables executives to evaluate cladding selection, ensuring efficient decision-making processes. The proposed method and its results were subjected to expert testing, and the satisfaction rate exceeded 80%, confirming the framework’s reliability in evaluating alternatives. This paper enhances the understanding of material selection methodologies and provides a valuable contribution to the field of construction management.

“…Researchers in the past 20 years have used some MCDM methods. For instance, analytical hierarchical process (AHP) [23,24], a technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) [25][26][27], preference ranking organisation method for enrichment evaluation (PROMETHEE) [28], ÉLimination et Choix Traduisant la REalité (ELECTRE) [29] and preference analysis for reference ideal solution (PARIS) [30]. These methods have been successfully implemented across diverse industries, reflecting their adaptability and effectiveness in handling complex decision-making scenarios [31].…”

This paper investigates the Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) factors influencing occupant satisfaction in commercial buildings in Iran, contrasting the views of building experts (architects and engineers) with those of building occupants. Employing the fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (FAHP), this study focuses on the four primary IEQ factors: thermal comfort, indoor air quality, visual comfort, and acoustic comfort. The study aims to bridge the gap between expert evaluations and occupant perceptions of IEQ factors in commercial buildings in Iran. By examining the disparities in prioritising IEQ factors between these two groups, the study sheds light on the complexities of IEQ assessment and highlights the importance of considering diverse perspectives in optimising indoor environments. Our methodology includes a survey conducted among 30 building experts (15 architects and 15 building engineers) and 102 occupants, employing FAHP to derive the relative importance weights of each IEQ factor. The results highlight significant disparities between architects, engineers, and occupants in prioritising these factors. Architects emphasise visual comfort (42%), while engineers and occupants view thermal comfort (53% and 41%) as the most crucial factor for occupant satisfaction. The study underscores the complexity of IEQ in commercial buildings and the diverse perspectives influencing its assessment. It contributes to the broader discourse on optimising IEQ, emphasising the need for a comprehensive approach that encompasses both technical expertise and occupant experience.
