Multi-criteria Student Project Allocation: A Case Study of Goal Programming Formulation with DSS Implementation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Abstract This paper concerns a typical Student Project Allocation (SPA) problem involving distributing a set of projects to students of an undergraduate “Directed Studies in Mathematics" course at the Department of Mathematics of the University of Hong Kong. Among a set of projects, each student indicates a preference list over their eligible projects, while the Department wants to make the most allocations, with its preferences over the individual students according to their GPA’s. We apply pre-emptive goal programming to a multi-criteria SPA model for allocating these projects to students with a DSS implementation. The numerical results illustrate the clear effectiveness and efficiency of this approach.

A Comprehensive Model for R and D Project Portfolio Selection with Zero-One Linear Goal-Programming (RESEARCH NOTE)
Technology centered organizations must be able to identify promising new products or process improvements at an early stage so that the necessary resources can be allocated to those activities. It is essential to invest in targeted research and development (R and D) projects as opposed to a wide range of ideas so that resources can be focused on successful outcomes. The selection of the most ap...
متن کاملA fuzzy multi-objective model for a project management problem
In this research, the multi-objective project management decision problem with fuzzy goals and fuzzy constraints are considered. We constitute α-cut approach and two various fuzzy goal programming solution methods for solving the Multi-Objective Project Management (MOPM) decision problem under fuzzy environments. The Interactive fuzzy multi-objective linear programming (i-FMOLP) and Weighted Ad...
متن کاملFuzzy Multi-Objective Linear Programming for Project Management Decision under Uncertain Environment with AHP Based Weighted Average Method
Smooth implementation and controlling conflicting goals of a project with the usage of all related resources through organization is inherently a complex task to management. At the same time deterministic models are never efficient in practical project management (PM) decision problems because the related parameters are frequently fuzzy in nature. The project execution time is a major concern o...
