On prioritized weighted aggregation in multi-criteria decision making

This paper deals with multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) problems with multiple priorities, in which priority weights associated with the lower priority criteria are related to the satisfactions of the higher priority criteria. Firstly, we propose a prioritized weighted aggregation operator based on ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operator and triangular norms (t-norms). To preserve the tradeoffs among the criteria in the same priority...
