ELECTRE II: Step by Step : Watch the Video Lecture First, a decision matrix is defined, criteria are classified (benefit/cost), and weights are assigned to reflect their relative importance.​ Then, for each pair of alternatives, concordance indices (measuring the strength of support) and discordance indices (measuring the strength of opposition) are computed and compared with thresholds to determine strong and weak outranking relations.​ Finally, ELECTRE II uses these strong and weak outranking graphs in a two‑phase distillation process (descending and ascending) to derive a complete or partial ranking of the alternatives.​ Typical applications Widely used in engineering, transportation, water and environmental management, logistics, and policy planning where decisions involve multiple criteria and stakeholders.​ Particularly useful when decision make...

An introduction to the most used multi-criteria decision-making method including example. The tutorial uses a graphical mode to explain the concept.  The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is a method for organizing and analyzing complex decisions, using math and psychology. It was developed by Thomas L. Saaty in the 1970s and has been refined since then.( Passage Technology ). See the entire video as given above.
