TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated aspects of obtaining a concensus ranking from ordinal rankings supplied by committee members and proposed an approach to the committee ranking problem which makes allowance for weights, partial rankings and multiple attributes.
Abstract: : This paper investigates aspects of obtaining a concensus ranking from ordinal rankings supplied by committee members. A procedure for calculating the distance between rankings which are represented by vectors is given along with an algorithm for deriving a min-max concensus ranking. In addition, an approach to the committee ranking problem which makes allowance for weights, partial rankings and multiple attributes is discussed. (Author)

TL;DR: An algorithm for determining the best ranking together with an illustrative example is given and areas of potential application such as defence construction and highway planning are discussed.
Abstract: : This paper investigates a class of committee ranking problems. A given member wishes to select an ordinal ranking of a set of objects which, when combined with the rankings provided by the other members, yields a consensus ranking that is as close as possible to some desired set of preferences. Areas of potential application such as defence construction and highway planning are discussed. An algorithm for determining the best ranking together with an illustrative example is given. (Author)
