Abstract
This chapter describes the evolution of different multi-objective decision-making (MODM) models with their historical backgrounds. Starting from MODM models in deterministic environments along with various solution techniques, the chapter presents how different kinds of uncertainties may be associated with such decision-making models. Among several types of uncertainties, it has been found that probabilistic and possibilistic uncertainties are of special interests. A brief literature survey on different existing methods to solve those types of uncertainties, independently, is discussed and focuses on the need of considering simultaneous occurrence of those types of uncertainties in MODM contexts. Finally, a bibliographic survey on several approaches for MODM under hybrid fuzzy environments has been presented. Through this chapter the readers can be able to get some concepts about the historical development of MODM models in hybrid fuzzy environments and their importance in solving various real-life problems in the current complex decision-making arena.
