Abstract
This paper presents a multicriteria decision making method, the Hierarchical Compromise Programming (HCP), which combines a hierarchical structure for the modelization of a problem with the minimization of the distance to an ideal point as a resolution procedure. The proposed method allows the application of a model based on the minimization of a distance function, with tangible and intangible aspects.
