Group decision making is an important part of multiple criteria decision making and the analytic hierarchy process (AHP). The aim of this paper was to compare group AHP methods. Seven simple group AHP aggregation techniques that could be attractive for applications selected from the vast array of group AHP models proposed in the literature were selected for evaluation. We developed three new me...

Currently, there has been increasing interest in the application of the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) in the educational sector. However, little effort has been made in reviewing its applications particularly in higherlearning institutions (HLIs). Thus, this paper attempts to systematically review and critically examine the applications of the AHP in this context covering 33 empirical and co...

Abstract. AHP is a multi-criteria decision method widely used by non-experts. We have been implementing an Intelligent Tutoring System teaching the underlying theory, in particular the construction of consistent or near consistent AHP matrices, and the calculation of priorities and consistency indexes. AHP Tutor’s architecture supports adaptable exercises and dynamic explanations of solution pa...

Effort Estimation has always been a challenging task for the Project managers. Many researchers have tried to help them by creating different types of models. This has been already proved that none is successful for all types of projects and every type of environment. Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) has been identified as the tool that would help in Multi Criteria Decision Making. Researchers ...

Hydrogen peroxide is generated during aerobic metabolism and is capable of damaging critical biomolecules. However, mutants of Escherichia coli that are devoid of catalase typically exhibit no adverse phenotypes during growth in aerobic media. We discovered that catalase mutants retain the ability to rapidly scavenge H(2)O(2) whether it is formed internally or provided exogenously. Analysis of ...

The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is a mathematical technique for multi-criteria decision-making. Complex problems or issues involving value or subjective judgments are suitable applications of the AHP approach. ‘Factors considered for the selection of Undergraduate Engineering Institution by the students’, is the research topic of interest. It involves a number of qualitative judgments base...
