OPTIMAL ALTERNATIVE SELECTION MODELS IN A MULTI-STAGE DECISION-MAKING PROCESS

A Multi-Criteria Decision Making for Location Selection in the Niger Delta Using Fuzzy TOPSIS Approach

Making an informed decision with regards to a suitable business location or site selection for organizations is becoming challenging for business decision makers globally; and even more challenging in business environment that are saddled with uncertainties. The continues raise of multiple criteria variation of site preferences has also necessitated the application of advanced decision making t...

Hospital Site Selection Using Two-stage Fuzzy Multi-criteria Decision Making Process

Site selection for sitting of urban activities/facilities is one of the crucial policy-related decisions taken by urban planners and policy makers. The process of site selection is inherently complicated. A careless site imposes exorbitant costs on city budget and damages the environment inevitably. Nowadays, multi-attributes decision making approaches are suggested to use to improve precision ...

A hybrid decision making system using DEA and fuzzy models for supplier selection in the presence of multiple decision makers

Robust Multi-Stage Decision Making

Testifying to more than ten years of academic and practical developments, this tutorial attempts to provide a succinct yet unified view of the robust multi-stage decision making framework. In particular, the reader should better understand: (1) the distinction between static versus fully or partially adjustable decisions; (2) the root of tractability issues; (3) the connection to robust dynamic...

An Optimum Selection of Simulated Geological Models by Multi-Point Geostatistics and Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Approaches; a Case Study in Sungun Porphyry-Cu deposit, Iran

An accurate modeling of sophisticated geological units has a substantial impact on designing a mine extraction plan. Geostatistical simulation approaches, via defining a variogram model or incorporating a training image (TI), can tackle the construction of various geological units when a sparse pattern of drilling is available. The variogram-based techniques (derived from two-point geostatistic...
