## Abstract This paper presents theoretical foundations for the description of preferences in multiple criteria decision making models using quantitative estimates of the relative importance of criteria. We develop simple decision rules that define the preference and indifference relations induced

β¦ Synopsis
A mathematical definition for the assertion `a group of criteria A is more important than a group of criteria B' is introduced. It is shown how quantitative information on relative importance of criteria allows us to obtain a more precise upper estimate for a set of all non-dominated solutions than the well-known Pareto set. & 1997
