(For outputs, see below)
A list of alternatives. Alternatives can be activated or desactivated via the <active> tag (true or false). By default (no <active> tag), alternatives are considered as active.
The input value should be a valid XMCDA document whose main tag is <alternatives>.
It must have the following form:
<alternatives>
<alternative>
<active>[...]</active>
[...]
</alternative>
[...]
</alternatives>
A list of <alternativeValue> in an <alternativesValues> containing the negative flow of each alternative. The <value> should be a numeric value.
The input value should be a valid XMCDA document whose main tag is <alternativesValues>.
A list of <alternativeValue> in an <alternativesValues> containing the positive flow of each alternative. The <value> should be a numeric value.
The input value should be a valid XMCDA document whose main tag is <alternativesValues>.
An <alternativesComparisons> containing the Promethee 1 ranking.
The returned value is a XMCDA document whose main tag is <alternativesComparisons>.
It has the following form:
<alternativesComparisons mcdaConcept="Promethee1">
<pairs>
<pair>
<initial>
<alternativeID>[...]</alternativeID>
</initial>
<terminal>
<alternativeID>[...]</alternativeID>
</terminal>
</pair>
[...]
</pairs>
</alternativesComparisons>
A list of messages generated by the algorithm.
The returned value is a XMCDA document whose main tag is <methodMessages>.
