Multi-criteria selection of a deep-water port in Klaipeda

Abstract

The Klaipeda port is an arterial transport corridor between Eastern and Western Europe. There is need to develop a deep-water sea port in the Klaipeda region to satisfy economic needs. This problem involves a multitude of requirements and uncertain conditions that have to be taken into consideration simultaneously. This paper proposes an integrated multi-criteria decision-making model to solve the problem. The backbone of the proposed mode consists of a combination of entropy and WASPAS methods.
