Group Decision Making in Higher Education Using the Analytic Hierarchy Process
نویسندگان
چکیده
The purpose of this paper is to illustrate how the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) can be applied to those situations in higher education where a group must evaluate a large number of alternatives. The suggested approach is illustrated using a case study that considers the evaluation of academic research papers at Villanova University. Following the discussion of this successful case study, a second example indicates how the AHP can be applied to the more complex problem of institution-wide strategic planning. These examples clearly demonstrate that the AHP approach is a versatile tool that can be applied to a wide range of important academic evaluation problems.

Application of Interval-valued Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process Approach in Selection Cargo Terminals, a Case Study
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...

Integrating a geographic information system and multi-criteria decision making methods have been lead to provide spatial multi-criteria decision making methods. In this study, the spatial potential of flooding was determined based on analytic network process and analytic hierarchy process. At first, six factors of flooding were determined as criteria. The criteria were the slope, hill-slope asp...

In this paper we extend fuzzy analytic hierarchy process into neutrosophic cubic environment. The neutrosophic cubic analytic hierarchy process can be used to manage more complex problems when the decision makers has a number of uncertainty, assigning preferences values to the considered object. We also define the concept of triangular neutrosophic cubic numbers and their operations laws. The a...

This paper proposes a method for ranking decision making units (DMUs) using some of the multiple criteria decision making / multiple attribute decision making (MCDM /MADM) techniques, namely, interval analytic hierarchy process (IAHP) and the technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS). Since the efficiency score of unity is assigned to ...
