Examining alternatives in the interval analytic hierarchy process using complete enumeration
نویسنده
چکیده
The Analytic Hierarchy Process as an aid to decision makers has gained in popularity over the years. Recently the procedure has been generalised into the Interval Analytic Hierarchy Process. Rather than select a precise ratio for the comparisons between the alternatives offered to the decision maker an interval is proposed. One popular strategy in examining this problem is to adopt a simulation technique. Here two simulation methods are considered and it is demonstrated that total enumeration is a viable alternative.

An integrated multi-criteria decision-making methodology based on type-2 fuzzy sets for selection among energy alternatives in Turkey
Energy is a critical factor to obtain a sustainable development for countries and governments. Selection of the most appropriate energy alternative is a completely critical and a complex decision making problem. In this paper, an integrated multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methodology based on type-2 fuzzy sets is proposed for selection among energy alternatives. Then a roadmap has been cr...
متن کاملThe Analytic Network Process
Abstract The Analytic Network Process (ANP) is a generalization of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The basic structure is an influence network of clusters and nodes contained within the clusters. Priorities are established in the same way they are in the AHP using pairwise comparisons and judgment. Many decision problems cannot be structured hierarchically because they involve the inter...

In the current work, a framework is presented for amine solvent selection in gas treating process. Since the appropriate decision making in this field affects the capital and operational costs, multi attribute decision making (MADM) techniques were used to rank alternatives. The determination of criteria and alternatives is the most important aspect in the MADM. Criteria were divided into two c...

Cargo terminals are the gateways for entrance of commodities into the transportation network. Therefore, locating them in optimal location could have a major impact on the cost effectiveness and efficiency of transport, traffic safety and reduction in environmental pollutions. Due to the presence of a large number of parameters involved and the existing uncertainties, decision making in this fi...
