Sustainable urban mobility plans (SUMPs) have become increasingly popular in cities with environmental problems to reduce pollution, often caused by urban transportation. Therefore, this study aims to provide a practical framework for the selection decisions of final measures and policies to be carried out to achieve SUMP workspace goals using a fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methodology. Alternatives are created with the strategic “pillar”, which was first adopted by the Podgorica city council. With the measurements in this pillar, the main criteria and the recommended measures for these measures create sub-criteria. Secondly, a Fuzzy Full Consistency Method (F-FUCOM) was used to determine the weights of the main and sub-criteria. The Fuzzy Combined Compromise Solution (F-CoCoSo) method was then applied to rank the alternatives. “The implementation and assurance of the SUMP” and “establishing a system for regular data collection, monitoring and evaluation of selected mobility indicators” were decided as the most important main and sub-criteria with weights of 0.286 and 0.1079, respectively. The findings suggest that the comprehensive planning for sustainable urban mobility alternative is first and the valorization of cycling potential alternative is second. A comprehensive sensitivity analysis confirms the validity, robustness, and effectiveness of the proposed framework. The applied methodology has the potential to assist decision makers in the process of developing SUMPs.

Information and communication technology (ICT) is a term that combines two terms, information technology and communication technology, under one roof and emphasizes the relationship between these technologies. With the rapid growth and spread of ICT in various sectors, ICT now has a tangible impact on economic and social growth. This article attempts to assess ICT development based on economic and social indicators using an integrated multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) approach. Data sets from G8 countries were used for actual comparison. For this purpose, nine criteria such as ICT added value, ICT employment, ICT investment, exports of ICT goods, households with computer access at home, fixed broadband, e-government readiness index, wireless broadband, total mobile cellular subscription were taken into account to evaluate the performance of G8 countries within the framework of the integrated model proposed in the study. In the study, the objective weight coefficients related to the criteria selected to measure the performance of ICT development for G8 countries were first determined by PSI and LOPCOW. Then these weights were combined with the Bayesian approach. The findings reveal that the most important (insignificant) criterion for ICT development is ICT employment (export of ICT goods). Then, the CRADIS and CoCoSo methods were applied to determine the best of the G8 countries. Both ranking results occurred in the same way. According to the results obtained, in terms of ICT development, the USA has been the best country and Italy the worst.
