infrastructure development being the major construction activity undertaken with the support of the government to eradicate poor transport infrastructure, to cater to ever-increasing population, to reduce the usage of own vehicle and environmental impact thereof, the concept of mass rapid transit system came into existence. among the various mass rapid transit system modes, metro rail construct...

An approach based on relative optimal membership degree is proposed to deal with multiple attribute decisionmaking (MADM) problems under risk with weight information unknown and attribute value as linguistic variable. Firstly, the operational laws of linguistic variable are introduced, and risk linguistic decision matrix is transformed into certain linguistic decision matrix by expectation valu...

Intrusion detection systems (IDSs) employ sophisticated security techniques to detect malicious activities on hosts and/or networks. IDSs have been utilized ensure the of computer and network systems. However, numerous evaluation selection issues related several cybersecurity aspects were solved using a decision support approach. The approach most often for in this regard is multi-attribute dec...

Supplier selection is a multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problem that is affected by quantitative and qualitative factors, some of which may conflict with each other. Since most of the input information is not known accurately, selecting the right suppliers becomes more difficult. Grey theory is one of the new mathematical methods used to analyze systems with uncertain and incomplete info...

In the forthcoming heterogeneous wireless environment, the mobility management of users roaming between different wireless access technologies is a challenging and important technical issue. New mobile devices such as netbooks, smartphones and tablets allow users to perform vertical handoffs among different wireless networks. The multiple attribute decision making (MADM) methods are suitable to...

Multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) is usually used to aggregate fuzzy data successfully. Choosing the best option regarding not generally symmetric on grounds that it does provide complete information. Since Aczel-Alsina aggregation operators (AOs) have great impact due their parameter variableness, they been well applied in MADM under construction. Recently, AOs intuitionistic sets (IFSs),...

Abstract The task of benchmarking smart e-tourism applications based on multiple key concept attributes is considered a multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) problem. Although the literature review has evaluated and benchmarked these applications, data ambiguity vagueness continue to be unresolved issues. robustness fuzzy decision by opinion score method (FDOSM) weighted with zero inconsistenc...

A general multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) approach is proposed to integrate subjective preferences and objective information and to assess the relative weights of attributes, where subjective preferences are expressed either by a fuzzy preference relation on decision alternatives or by a pairwise comparison matrix on the relative weights of attributes or by both of them and objective ...

maintain and enhance the quality of human resources and achieve maximum value from it industry employees is the most important concern of managers. most of researches in this area focus on companies’ endeavour to recruiting qualified experts in the it industry in the next decade. the selection of qualified personnel for organizations which focus on human resouces as a strength, will be a major ...

Selection of an appropriate Multiple Attribute Decision Making (MADM) method for providing a solution to given MADM problem is always challenging endeavour. The challenge even greater situations where specific there exist multiple methods with similar degree suitability. Technique Order Preference by Similarity Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) and its dominant variant the Modified TOPSIS are two very ap...
