“…Final ranking of locations is presented in Table 24. In comparison to some other studies such as and Popovic et al (2019) in locating related issues there is a big difference in the methodology. These studies both applied SWARA method for evaluating and weighting criteria while this study applied BWM to do that.…”

Finding an appropriate location from any kind of perspectives is a really vital issue for businesses. Searching for the best location to meet a business perspective which can be also a sustainable one would be really challenging and it needs pre-planning. Locating for business issues in tourism industry for instance hotel locating is one of the major complicated topics in this area. Locating can come along with pre-planning and kind of feasibility studies which can cover all necessities of current and future needs of an issue. Locating with sustainability point of view is one the newest approach in different studies which this research is also working on that based on a hybrid Multiple Attribute Decision Making (MADM) model. MADM methods are really suitable ways in making complicated decisions in different areas. A hybrid MADM model based on BWM-WASPAS is applied for locating problem in finding the best location for the hotel locating challenge. To meet the aim of this research, a case study for evaluating probable locations of a five star hotel examined for the Shahrekord city, Iran. As locations were prioritized based on sustainability perspective, business goals can also be seen as a pre-planning project.

“…Every day, each of us usually makes a large number of decisions. However, one of the problems that arise is to choose from the multitude of possible solutions the solution by which we will achieve the desired goal to the greatest degree, taking into account the objective limitations, which, to a greater or lesser extent, limit our freedom of judgment [10][11][12]. As could be inferred, the decision process involves the synergy of action of the human factor, mathematical methods, and IT tools [13].…”

The main goal of this paper is to propose a Multiple-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) approach that will facilitate decision-making in the field of logistics—i.e., in the selection of the optimal equipment for performing a logistics activity. For defining the objective weights of the criteria, the correlation coefficient and the standard deviation (CCSD method) are applied. Furthermore, for determining the semi-objective weights of the considered criteria, the indifference threshold-based attribute ratio analysis method (ITARA) is used. In this way, by combining these two methods, the weights of the criteria are determined with a higher degree of reliability. For the final ranking of the alternatives, the measurement of alternatives and ranking according to the compromise solution method (MARCOS) is utilized. For demonstrating the applicability of the proposed approach, an illustrative case study pointing to the selection of the best manual stacker for a small warehouse is performed. The final results are compared with the ones obtained using the other proved MCDM methods that confirmed the reliability and stability of the proposed approach. The proposed integrated approach shows itself as a suitable technique for applying in the process of logistics equipment selection, because it defines the most influential criteria and the optimal choice with regard to all of them in a relatively easy and comprehensive way. Additionally, conceiving the determination of the criteria with the combination of objective and semi-objective methods enables defining the objective weights concerning the attitudes of the involved decision-makers, which finally leads to more reliable results.

“…MCDM has developed many soft calculation methods to process a variety of complex data (including data from expert interviews and data from actual surveys) and provide valuable management information to support decision-makers in formulating optimal strategies [10][11][12][13]. At present, there have been some studies using MCDM to study tourism-related issues, such as surveys of service quality in tourism [14], hotel performance evaluation and selection [15], tourism development and management [16].…”

Many countries advocate sports for all to cultivate people’s interest in sports. In cities, cross-industry alliances between sports and tourism are one of the common practices. The following two important issues need to be discussed, namely, what factors should be paid attention to in the development of sports tourism, and what are the mutual influential relationships among these factors. This study proposes a novel two-stage multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) model to incorporate the concept of sustainable development into sports tourism. First, the Bayesian best–worst method (Bayesian BWM) is used to screen out important criteria. Bayesian BWM solves the problem of expert opinion integration of conventional BWM. It is based on the statistical probability to estimate the optimal group criteria weights. Secondly, the rough decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (rough DEMATEL) technique is used to map out complex influential relationships. The introduction of DEMATEL from the rough set theory has better practicality. In the calculation program, interval types are used to replace crisp values in order to retain more expert information. A city in central Taiwan was used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the model. The results show that the quality of urban security, government marketing, business sponsorship and mass transit planning are the most important criteria. In addition, in conjunction with local festivals is the most influential factor for the overall evaluation system.
