چکیده

The notion of comparatively positioning objects with respect to each other is commonly called ranking. With respect to databases, the ranking issue is closely associated with data retrieval. Yu, Hwang, and Chang (2007) highlight that with the myriad of databases situated online, retrieving relevant data is problematic; in reality it becomes an online ranking problem (Chaudhuri, Das, Hristidis, & Weikum, 2001). It is noteworthy that in the year 2007, the First International Workshop on Ranking in Databases took place (DBRank, 2007). Its realisation was indicated as being due to the integral position of ranking in top-k queries, semantics like keyword search, and again the sheer explosion in the volume of data handled. In this chapter, the particular ranking performed AbstrAct

Using Hybrid Fuzzy PROMETHEE II and Fuzzy Binary Goal Programming for Risk Ranking: A Case Study of Highway Construction Projects

Multi attribute decision making methods are considered as one of the most useful methods for solving ranking problems. In some decision making problems, while the alternatives for corresponding criteria are compared in a pairwise comparison manner, if the criteria are inherently fuzzy, debates will arise in ranking alternatives due to the closeness of the values of the criteria. In this researc...
