Computes utility values for decision making units based on given functions for inputs and outputs.
(For outputs, see below)
A list of criteria with specified preference direction. List has to contains at least one criterion that will be minimized (input) and at least one criterion that will be maximized (output). In addition, minimum and maximum possible value for each critetion can be defined. If not defined, they will be computed from alternatives performances on given criteria. For each criterion, one can specify characteristic points of additive value function.
A list of alternatives (DMUs).
