Abstract: This article contains a short historical review of the establishment of methods of PROMETHEE family. We consider the classification of B. Roy and 2 approach to the formal statement of the discrete MCDA-problem: the approach of multi-attribute utility theory and outranking approach. We formalized the statement of the problem to be solved by the methods of PROMETHEE family. We described the input, intermediate and output data of the discrete MCDA-problem.
We have shown the work with the Visual PROMETHEE Academic software tool on the example of car selection. Particular attention is paid to visualization of intermediate and output data for solving discrete MCDA-problems by PROMETHEE I and PROMETHEE II methods. We consider the diagrams "PROMETHEE I Partial Ranking", "PROMETHEE II Complete Ranking", "PROMETHEE Diamonds", "PROMETHEE Network", "GAIA Plane".
It is mentioned that the diagrams are used for rapidly getting information on the resulting output data and intermediate discrete MCDA-problem solutions. The user refers to the results in tabular form only when the need arises.
