An integrated interactive menu driven software MCDMGDSS was developed to consider multicriterion analysis in group decision making environment. The capability of MCDMGDSS is demonstrated with the case study of Chaliyar river basin planning problem, Kerala, India to find the most suitable configuration of the reservoirs. Eight alternatives are analysed with respect to six noncommensurable discre...

امروزه علاقه به اعمال سبک مربی گری در میان مدیران سازمانها حال رشد است. سازمان ها دنبال این روش مدیریتی هستند تا با استفاده از شایستگی های گری، نیروی انسانی خود را متعهد ساخته و بهبودعملکرد فردی سازمانی نائل آیند. وجود این، هیچ تحقیق یا ادبیاتی زمینه ندارد که کدامیک عوامل بیشترین بهبود عملکرد برای ویژه بانک بوجود می آورند. حاضر راستای پاسخگویی چالش، صورت جامع نظام مند تمامی شاخص هایی حوزه موثر ...

This paper deals with multicriteria discrete-continuous problems of scheduling nonpreemptable jobs. The need for reusability and modularity leads us to build a “generic” optimisation and simulation framework, while the need to quickly generate good compromises between conflicting objectives requires the implementation of multicriteria scheduling models. This paper describes the practical possib...

This work presents the results of 4 years long monitoring of concentrations of SO(2) gas and PM(10) in the urban area around the copper smelter in Bor. The contents of heavy metals Pb, Cd, Cu, Ni, and As in PM(10) were determined and obtained values were compared to the limit values provided in EU Directives. Manifold excess concentrations of all the components in the atmosphere of the urban ar...

This paper presents an effective decision making framework for software selection in manufacturing industries using a multiple criteria decision making method, Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluations (PROMETHEE). The method is improved in the present work by integrating with analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and the fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic is introduced to handle the i...

The paper presents the elements of a new methodology to control complex and hypercomplex socio-economic structures. The control process is iterative, combining the principles of System Dynamics, Control theory and the PROMETHEE Multicriteria Decision Aid (MCDA) methodology. It consists of three main stages: setting up and calibration of a quantitative model, de®nition of long-term strategies an...

nowadays energy is one of the most essential needs of human being and it can be considered as the basic prerequisite of social and economic development.  hence, many of the correlations and legislations of a country are affected by it. since iran has huge source of gas and oil, it has turned to a fossil fuel oriented county. but as oil and gas sources are non-renewable ones and cannot be replac...
