Collective decision making, the processes of group decision and negotiation, and the differences between them are explained and illustrated. Then the applicability of techniques of multiple criteria decision analysis (MCDA) to problems of group decision and negotiation (GDN) is discussed. A review of systems for Group Decision Support and Negotiation Support then highlights the contributions of MCDA techniques. The roles of decision makers and others in GDN are discussed, and overall progress in GDN is reviewed. Finally, some suggestions for worthwhile future contributions from MCDA are put forward.
