One of the most important, exciting and influential topics in Industrial and Systems Engineering has emerged as the field of Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM). Both from a theoretical and practical perspective, MCDM influences all aspects of engineering design and analysis.

Quantitative techniques of production planning and control, including master production scheduling, manufacturing resources planning, operation scheduling, materials management, just-in-time production, facility layout, and forecasting.
