In the multicriteria strategic planning of an organization, management should often be aware of employees’ resistance to change before making new decisions; otherwise, a chosen strategy, though technologically acceptable, may not be efficient in the long term. This paper, using a sample case study within an organization, shows how different versions of ELECTRE methods can be used in choosing ef...

In the literature on MCDM, many methods have been proposed in order to sort alternatives evaluated on several attributes into ordered categories. Most of them were proposed on an ad hoc basis. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to a recent trend of research aiming at giving these methods sound theoretical foundations. Using tools from conjoint measurement, we provide an axiomatic analys...

This document is the User Manual for the decision support software IRIS Interactive Robustness analysis and parameters' Inference for multicriteria Sorting problems (Version 2). This tool has been built to support the assignment of actions (alternatives, projects, candidates) described by their evaluation (performance) at multiple dimensions (criteria) to a set of predefined ordered categories,...

Machine tool selection is a very complex procedure. It involves deep analysis of various factors affecting functioning and performance. CNC machine tool selection is also a such kind of problem[5]. Objective of this study is to perform various MCDM methods for selecting most appropriate machine tool. AHP method is used to calculate the weights of various criteria[10] . The numerical problem con...

Abstract Nowadays, most shipping companies are aware of the importance analysing seafarers’ work performance. Thus, improving performance or finding out ways by which can be enhanced is becoming one decisive factors for success any company. Any organization aims to have employees who accomplish corporate goals and objectives using available resources efficiently effectively. Manpower putting mo...

Several interactive methods exist to identify nondominated solutions in a Multiple Objective Mixed Integer Linear Program. But what if the Decision Maker is also interested in sorting those solutions (assigning them to pre-established ordinal categories)? We propose an interactive ‘‘branch-and-bound like’’ technique to progressively build the nondominated set, combined with ELECTRE TRI method (...

nowadays, by the expansion of information technology in human life and dependence of business upon it, data protection, as one the most valuable and critical assets of the organization, has become the vital tool of modern industry and prerequisite for sustaining business process. in order to face the challenges and to take advantage of new opportunities brought forth by it advances we suggest o...

This paper applies a new multi attribute decision-making (MADM) model to help companies for enterprise resource planning (ERP) selection problem based on Balanced Score Card method. This paper uses three-parameter interval grey numbers which is derived from Grey theory (was proposed by J. Deng). This numbers is used instead of linguistic variables. Beside, a new weighting method that outcomes f...
