neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of
independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's
verifiability policy and the
notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

The Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis Methods Selection Software. [1] [2] [3] (MCDA-MSS) is a freely accessible [4] software that allows decision analysts to find the most relevant MCDA methods for many decision-making problems, from relatively simple to very complex.
This software has two aims:
Why is the MCDA-MSS needed? Over the last few decades, the number of MCDA methods has grown steadily (hundreds are available nowadays), and an analyst can find it difficult to select the relevant MCDA method(s) for the problem under consideration. The main issue that decision analysts have to deal with is summarized by this question:
Which is the most suitable MCDA method (or subset of methods) that should be used for a given decision-making problem?
The MCDA-MSS includes 205 MCDA methods, each one assessed with 156 objective features. The latter make the complexities of decision-making more transparent and manageable, as well as provide an extensive basis for a long-lasting and traceable development of MCDA methods. The MCDA-MSS has four sections:
The decision aiding process is structured. As the software walks the user through, the user provides answers to the questions presented in each section. Answering them leads the user to a subset of methods relevant to their problem.
Under each question, the user can find its description, while the description of an answer appears when the user moves the mouse on it.
The MCDA-MSS is available free of charge [4]. Those interested in the recording of an online workshop on the MCDA-MSS can access it [5]
