Multi criterion Decision Making (MCDM) methods are widely applied in many domains for finding rank based on the available conflicting nature of the criteria and to choose the best alternative. MCDM methods comprise of complex mathematical calculations which required time to solve, especially, when number of criteria and alternatives are more. In order to automate the process software is require...

Decision-making about server selection is one of the multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) processes where interactions among criteria should be considered. The paper introduces and develops some solutions for considering interactions among criteria in the MCDM problems. In the frame procedure for MCDM by using the group of methods, based on assigning weights, special attention is given to the ...

in this paper, first, a conceptual framework has been developed and while truly recognizing different aspects of the technology transfer process, it is trying to introduce a decision-making methodology in the choice of projects. then by choosing effective variables in technology transfer process, a multiple criteria decision-making (mcdm) model has been designed, so that the choice of appropria...

Making an informed decision with regards to a suitable business location or site selection for organizations is becoming challenging for business decision makers globally; and even more challenging in business environment that are saddled with uncertainties. The continues raise of multiple criteria variation of site preferences has also necessitated the application of advanced decision making t...

This paper introduces multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) into group decision making to propose a multi-criteria group decision making model for credit risk analysis. This model can not only deal with multi-criteria and complicated practical problems, but also reduce individual subjective preference to support group decision-making. In this model, experts’ opinion is integrated by post-expert...

The current study set to extend a new VIKOR method as a compromise ranking approach to solve multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) problems through intuitionistic fuzzy analysis. Using compromise method in MCDM problems contributes to the selection of an alternative as close as possible to the positive ideal solution and far away from the negative ideal solution, concurrently. Using Atanasso...

Enterprises nowadays are subscribing access to several Internet Service Providers (ISPs) for reliability, redundancy and better revenues underlying the service extension, while providing good Quality of Service (QoS). In this paper, a dynamic decision-making framework is presented for Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) based voice/video call routing in multihomed network. The decision engine tak...

The purpose of this study is to find the key factors influencing blog design, and explore the causal relationships between the criteria for each factor. Since design is a multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) problem, this study adopts a model which is a hybrid of factor analysis and the Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory method (DEMATEL). The DEMATEL method is used to simplify ...

Single-valued neutrosophic hesitant fuzzy set (SVNHFS) is a combination of single-valued neutrosophic set and hesitant fuzzy set, and its aggregation tools play an important role in the multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) process. This paper investigates the MCDM problems in which the criteria under SVNHF environment are in different priority levels. First, the generalized single-valued ne...

in this paper, a model has been provided for selecting right portfolio in stock exchange. the ranking of financial industries and companies has been applied for the selection of the right stock in this model. these rankings have been done through promethee decision- making method. technical analysis aims to determine the right time to buy and sell the superior stocks. a survey study is also don...
