Abstract

[This chapter has been developed as a support for the techniques commented upon in different chapters. It includes two examples, the first designed to demonstrate the use of the SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) analysis. It is a simple example in which the intention is to show how to proceed to evaluate impacts. The second case pertains to risk analysis and it is applied to selecting construction alternatives. The final part of the chapter displays the names of 66 projects, and information about each one such as title, area to which it belongs, author/s name/s, sources where the corresponding paper or article can be found, and their electronic addresses. This table contemplates the following methods: AHP and ANP, ELECTRE, PROMETHEE, Cost/Benefit, LP and SIMUS, MAUT, REGIME, SAMI and some others. Its purpose is to support the DM by giving her/him the opportunity to study different approaches to a problem that could be similar.]
