Abstract

Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis is a decision-making technique that is used by practitioners and frequently discussed and applied by researchers. This present study attempts to review the literature of applications of MCDA techniques in the area of sustainability using citation analysis. For the data collection, the Scopus database was used. With the help of related keywords, 701 research papers were identified and found suitable for analysis. These papers were then analyzed based on country, author, citation, year, and other criteria to demonstrate the pattern of research applying MCDA in sustainability. The CiteSpace tool was also used to present the clusters, citation analysis, and keywords as bursts. The findings of the present study will help future researchers better explore the field.

期刊介绍： IJAHP is a scholarly journal that publishes papers about research and applications of the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) and Analytic Network Process(ANP), theories of measurement that can handle tangibles and intangibles; these methods are often applied in multicriteria decision making, prioritization, ranking and resource allocation, especially when groups of people are involved. The journal encourages research papers in both theory and applications. Empirical investigations, comparisons and exemplary real-world applications in diverse areas are particularly welcome.
