Group Decision-Making Model using Fuzzy-TOPSIS Method for FMS Evaluation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The evaluation of flexible manufacturing system(FMS) is regarded as a multiple attribute group decisionmaking problem and has a critical impact on the improvement of manufacturing system competitiveness. Therefore, an effective group decision-making model using fuzzy-TOPSIS method is developed for the evaluation of alternative FMSs where the information available is subjective and imprecise. Initially, the voting method is integrated into the group decision-making model to obtain the appropriate attribute weights by aggregating fuzzy linguistic preferences of a group of experts. Next, the fuzzy-TOPSIS method is employed to determine the final ranking order of alternative FMSs. Finally, an empirical study is conducted to illustrate the applicability and potentiality of the proposed group decision-making framework. In addition, a sensitivity analysis is performed to demonstrate the robustness of the proposed model. Key–Words: flexible manufacturing system, group decision-making model, the voting method, fuzzy-TOPSIS, sensitivity analysis

Fuzzy Hybrid Decision Model for FMS Evaluation and Selection based on GRA-TOPSIS Method
The aim of this paper is to present a hybrid group decision model for evaluating flexible manufacturing systems(FMSs), in which the information about attribute weights is completely unknown, and the attribute values take the form of triangular fuzzy numbers. In this proposed methodology, the voting method is adopted to calculate the attribute weights by aggregating the decision-makers’ attitude...

متن کاملA New Compromise Decision-making Model based on TOPSIS and VIKOR for Solving Multi-objective Large-scale Programming Problems with a Block Angular Structure under Uncertainty
This paper proposes a compromise model, based on a new method, to solve the multi-objective large-scale linear programming (MOLSLP) problems with block angular structure involving fuzzy parameters. The problem involves fuzzy parameters in the objective functions and constraints. In this compromise programming method, two concepts are considered simultaneously. First of them is that the optimal ...
متن کاملDecision making under uncertainty using a qualitative TOPSIS method for selecting sustainable energy alternatives (Short title: Qualitative TOPSIS for selecting energy alternatives)
Multi-criteria decision-making methods support decision makers in all stages of the decision-making process by providing useful data. However, criteria are not always certain as uncertainty is a feature of the real world. Multicriteria decision-making methods under uncertainty and fuzzy systems are accepted as suitable techniques in conflicting problems that cannot be represented by numerical v...
