It is great pleasure for us to share with the MCDM/A community that Dr. Banu Lokman was the 2022 recipient of prestigious Bernard Roy (BR) award. Dr. Banu Lokman is a Reader in Operational Research at the School of Organisations, Systems and People, University of Portsmouth, UK. We have known Dr. Lokman as an excellent member of the MCDM community for over 10 years and have always thought that she deserves an award. We are very pleased that she was recognized by the EURO Working Group on Multiple Criteria Decision Aiding (EWG MCDA). The award was given during the EWG MCDA business meeting in Agios Nicolaos, Crete last September by Yannis Siskos, the 2022 Jury Chair. Congratulations Dr. Lokman, we are proud of you!
我们非常高兴地与MCDM/A社区分享，Banu Lokman博士是2022年著名的Bernard Roy (BR)奖的获得者。Banu Lokman博士是英国朴茨茅斯大学组织、系统和人员学院运筹学专业的讲师。10多年来，我们一直认为Lokman博士是MCDM社区的优秀成员，并一直认为她应该获得一个奖项。我们非常高兴她获得了欧元多标准决策辅助工作组(EWG MCDA)的认可。该奖项于去年9月在克里特岛Agios Nicolaos举行的EWG MCDA商务会议上由2022年评审团主席Yannis Siskos颁发。恭喜洛克曼博士，我们为你感到骄傲!

ISAHP 2022 was an excellent meeting! We secured quite a few special issues for conference participants. Yet, these reflections are confined to the Journal of Enterprise Information Management (JEIM) and the Journal of Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis (JMCDA). JEIM will be guest edited by Birsen Karpak, Emel Aktas and Ilker Topcu; we are pleased with this international cooperation among the USA, the UK, and Turkey. The guest editors for JMCDA will be Birsen Karpak and Enrique Mu. Even though we are reflecting upon submissions for the two journals (JEIM and JMCDA), quite a few of the following suggestions are useful for any special issue of IJAHP.

Research in Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) and its subfields (multi-attribute utility theory or Decision Analysis, AHP, Goal Programming, MCDA, multi-objective mathematical programming, EMO) is very active. However, our general feeling is that bright, young people do not focus their energies sufficiently on solving important problems despite many very important problems that deserve attention. Some of the problems are critical to the well-being of the world. The purpose of our essay is to identify these very important problems (or mega trends, as they are sometimes called) and briefly discuss how the research community could help solve or at least alleviate such problems. The reader could interpret our essay as suggestions for a research agenda or program. It does not matter whether we are AHP scholars, multi-objective optimizers, or decision analysts, everyone’s contribution is needed.

Compliance of Islamic banking products with Maqasid Shariah has been a never-ending debate. However, most discussions are merely explorative, descriptive and perceptive in nature. This article aims to evaluate two types of home financing products in Malaysia based on the Maqasid Shariah of the product development process in Islamic banks. To provide a more coherent and concrete decision, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) has been used. Bay’ Bithaman Ajil (sale with deferred payment) and Tawarruq (monetization) have been chosen to represent sale-based financing and Musharakah Mutanaqiṣah (diminishing partnership) represents partnership-based financing. The overall results demonstrated that partnership-based financing complied with the social requirements of MSPDF (Maqasid Shariah-based product development framework) at 87.5%, while sale-based financing was rated at 12.5%. The findings will assist Shariah advisors, Islamic finance product developers, economic analysts, financial engineers and policymakers to incorporate the relevant Shariah objectives in Islamic financial product development.

Solar-based renewable energy adoption is in its early stage in the power system of Nepal complying with its commitment to carbon neutrality. The government of Nepal has declared a goal of setting up solar power plants of at least 200 MW in Madhesh Province, but the selection of optimal sites will be the decisive factor in achieving this goal. Therefore, rigorous investigation is necessary for optimal site selection. A three-step framework combining the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the Geographical Information System (GIS) has been adopted to identify the optimal location for solar power plant installation in Madhesh Province. The framework includes the creation of weighted individual raster images for the different criteria, images of restricted areas for solar installation, and a combination of all the rasters into a single raster using GIS-based software. The weights of the criteria and sub-criteria have been evaluated using the AHP model, which is an expert judgments-based model. The criteria considered were solar irradiance, annual mean temperature, distance from the road, distance from the substation, distance from the urban area, elevation, aspect, and land use. The results were graded from the least preferred area to the most highly suitable area. The most highly suitable areas were in the Saptari, Siraha, Dhanusa, and Mahottari districts, while the districts in the western region of the province had less suitable areas. Thus, the province’s eastern region is most suitable for installing solar power plants.

E-commerce, which is defined as making commercial transactions in electronic environment, is becoming widespread day by day with the increase in the use of internet and mobile devices. Especially with the effect of COVID-19, the consumption habits of individuals have changed greatly, increasing the interest in electronic sales channels. Regardless of big or small, most companies and retailers are looking for ways to address their customers through electronic channels due to the effect of COVID-19. In this process, the rapidly increasing trend of electronic commerce raises one of the important issues of companies, "In which e-marketplace should we sell?”. Based on this issue, in this study, five criteria that are important in choosing the right e-marketplace were determined and eight online alternative e-marketplaces were evaluated. In the study carried out by using neutrosophic fuzzy AHP and EDAS methods, which are multi-criteria decision making techniques, a framework has been established for choosing the right e-commerce marketplace for sellers.

A great concern when utilizing the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is how the final priority vector, resulting from the inconsistent analysis, behaves when compared with the original priority ranking, resulting from the consistent analysis. The AHP utilizes an inconsistency index to predict rank reversal. In addition to the original inconsistency index of the AHP, several authors have worked on developing alternative inconsistency indexes, with the goal of improving the predictability of rank reversal. However, inconsistency indexes do not help clarify whether a rank reversal is a rejectable outcome or, to some extent, the correct answer. A rank reversal may express the correct priority, particularly when some positions in the original priority rank have small weight differences among them. Therefore, it is very important to develop a method to allow a clear and definitive analysis on how disturbed the weights and ranking of the final priority vectors are when compared to their original consistent rankings. Such a method is developed here and its utilization is demonstrated by analyzing a corporate governance scenario.

The journal has made several important changes this year. First, we moved to a rolling article publication mode; that is, articles are published as soon as they are fully reviewed, accepted and copyedited. This allows quicker diffusion of the studies and authors’ work. Our second innovation has been removing the need to register as a reader to access the journal contents. The original rationale for this was to assess the number of readers of the journal; however, it is now possible to obtain this information with many other tools. Even though registration was free, it was still one more step to access the article and many people preferred to just skip registration and move to any other article in their Google search.

When a decision maker is not sure in assigning a value for a pairwise comparison, he/she should assign a fuzzy value such as ‘between 3 and 4’ or ‘around 5’. These expressions can be represented by fuzzy numbers, which make the use of fuzzy AHP methods possible. Each new fuzzy set extension has caused new fuzzy AHP method to be developed by researchers. INFUS conferences is a scientific arena that the researchers can present their new fuzzy AHP extensions and benefit the discussions during the sessions. This paper summarizes the latest fuzzy AHP/ANP extensions developed in the recent years at INFUS conferences.
