The Homogeneous MADM Methods: Is Trade-Off between Attributes Important?

Compensatory multiattribute decision-making (MADM) methods are founded on the trade-offs between attributes, allowing an alternative to compensate for its weakness in an attribute with its strength in another attribute. We call them heterogeneous MADM methods because they generally consider the unlimited trade-off between attributes. In other words, they even allow that very poor performance of an attribute to be compensated by the strong performance of another attribute.
