Abstract
INTRODUCTION: This critical review investigates the utilization trends of Multicriteria Decision Making (MCDM) in software project management, emphasizing its applications, implementation challenges, and emerging trends. OBJECTIVES: The study explores recent literature published between 2019 and 2024, utilizing a systematic methodology to analyze the effectiveness and limitations of MCDM techniques in software project planning, selection, and execution. METHODS: A Boolean search strategy on Scopus was employed to identify relevant literature. The systematic methodology involved analyzing the identified literature to discern patterns, gaps, and recommendations for integrating MCDM methodologies within software engineering projects. RESULTS: The review identifies key patterns, challenges, and emerging trends in adopting MCDM techniques in software project management, providing insights and recommendations for future research and practice. CONCLUSION: This critical review offers valuable insights into the landscape of MCDM utilization in software project management, highlighting areas for improvement and future exploration.
