Selection of a student for All Round Excellence Award using fuzzy AHP and TOPSIS methods
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of the study is developing a fuzzy decision model to select a student from an Engineering college who is eligible for All Round Excellence Award for the year 2004-05 by taking subjective judgments of decision makers into consideration. Here Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) approach and (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solutions (TOPSIS) methods are proposed. The weights of the criteria by decision makers are determined by FAHP method and the ranking of the alternative branches from which a student is selected are determined by TOPSIS method. A numerical example is taken to demonstrate these processes.

Project Selection by Using Fuzzy AHP and TOPSIS Technique
In this article, by using fuzzy AHP and TOPSIS technique we propose a new method for project selection problem. After reviewing four common methods of comparing alternatives investment (net present value, rate of return, benefit cost analysis and payback period) we use them as criteria in AHP tree. In this methodology by utilizing improved Analytical Hierarchy Process by Fuzzy set theory, first...

Increases in populations and in particular in developing countries are placing increased pressure on both natural and agricultural resources. In many cases, especially in semi-arid regions, the pressures are compounded by restricted agricultural lands. Reliable and relevant land evaluation is a requirement for land use policy and decision making to support sustainable rural development. Land ev...
