This wasone of the regular conferences of the International Society on Multiple Criteria Decision Making, which are held at approximately two-year intervals. The Ankaraconference had 195participants from 38countries. Atotal of 185papers werepresented attheconference. The titleofour volumeisMCDM intheNewMillennium.The papers presented at the conference reflect the theme. We had several papers on information technology (IT) and many application papers. Of the 81 application papers presented, 14appear inthe volume. Weexpect more ITapplications of MCDM to appear inthefuture,inparticular intheareasofe-commerceandtheinternet. The conference surroundings andaccomodations wereexcellent,andconducive to both an outstanding academic exchange, and enjoyment and a cultural broadening of participants. We had a pleasant and enjoyable outing and visit to the Anatolian Civilizations Museum. We also had an outstanding banquet at which awards were presented. The MCDM Gold Medal was presented to ProfessorThomas Saaty,oftheUniversityofPittsburgh. The MCDM Presidential Service Award waspresented toProfessorPekka Korhonen oftheHelsinki School of Economics for his years of presidential service to the society. The society presented the MCDM Edgeworth-Pareto Award to Professor Alexander V.Lotov of the Russian Academy of Sciences. It also presented the George Cantor Award to Philippe Vincke of the Universite Libre de Bruxelles. The society presented The MCDM Conference Chairmanship Award to Murat Koksalan of the Middle East Technical University. The society's new president, Valerie Belton of StrathclydeUniversity tookoffice atthemeeting. We would like to thank the administrators of the Middle East Technical University (METU) who have been very supportive and generous in making available university resources. Members oftheIndustrial EngineeringDepartment worked diligently inthe organization of the conference to make it a success. Ms. Banu Akman and herstaff from theMETU Travel Agency did anexcellent job in handling variousconference arrangements. For their efforts, we would like to recognize and thank the local organizing committee members: Murat Koksalan (Chair), METU Osman Alp,METU Meral Azizoglu,METU NesimErkip, METU Esra Karasakal, METU BirsenKarpak, Youngstown State University VI Suna Kondakci, METU Gtilser Koksal,METU SelcenPamuk,METU Orner Saatcioglu,METU Serpil Sayin,Koc University HaldunSUral, METU TayyarSen, METU CananUIu,METU Gunduz Ulusoy,Sabanci University We would also like to thank the members of the International Advisory Committee: PekkaJ.

In putting together the proceedings, the editors asked participants to submit papers for the volume. Papers were sent to multiple reviewers, who reviewed the VII papers efficiently and effectively. We thank them for their service, and list their names atthe end of the volume. Without their help, we would not have been able tocomplete thisvolume inthetimetaken. In addition to the authors and reviewers, we must also thank the people who helped in putting together the volume. In Buffalo at the State University ofNew York, secretary Ms. Valerie Limpert was extremely helpful, as was a Ph. D. Student, Ms. Hyunjeong Kang, who helped in the formatting of the papers. In Ankara, various staff at the METU provided assistance and in West Lafayette various staffmembersofPurdueUniversity provided assistance.
