Sustainable development is regarded as a pivotal factor for smart urban planning. Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) is a well-known land use transportation integration (LUTI) planning method, which can fulfill sustainable development objectives. In this study, a new spatial index is developed to measure TOD levels in neighborhoods of Tehran, the capital of Iran. To develop the TOD index, sever...

A multimodal multi-criteria route planning (MMRP) system provides an optimal multimodal route from an origin point to a destination point considering two or more criteria in a way this route can be a combination of public and private transportation modes. In this paper, the simulate annealing (SA) and the fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (fuzzy AHP) were combined in order to find this route. ...

The COVID-19 pandemic broke out and the global logistics industry suffered severe losses; therefore, Fuzzy FMEA-AHP (Fuzzy Failure Mode Effects Analysis-Analytic Hierarchy Process) method is proposed to analyze failure reasons of system in pandemic. In this article, we have made an optimization on basis FMEA method: fuzzy integrated into algorithm, referred as F-RPWN (fuzzy risk priority-weight...

Abstract: With the globalization of online shopping, deterioration of the ecological environment and the increasing pressure of urban transportation, a novel logistics service mode—joint distribution (JD)—was developed. Selecting the optimal partner combination is important to ensure the joint distribution alliance (JDA) is sustainable and stable, taking into consideration conflicting criteria....

Several approaches are followed in project scheduling under multiple resources. Typically, priorities for each activity are obtained using qualitative data. In this paper, both quantitative and qualitative data are considered in a fuzzy environment. A Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy process is developed to obtain weightages for each activity that needs multiple resources. Fuzzy AHP efficiently handl...

Decision-making problems require systematic approach to evaluate alternatives using both quantitative and non-quantitative factors. Standard methods to solve problems lack considerations of non-quantitative factors, in which numeric value is difficult to assign. Different techniques like Fuzzy set theory, Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) are presently b...

A systematic approach to the inventory control and classification may have a significant influence on company competitiveness. In practice, all inventories cannot be controlled with equal attention. In order to efficiently control the inventory items and to determine the suitable ordering policies for them, multiple criteria inventory classification is used. In this paper, a systematic and logi...

In this study, we proposed a Fuzzy and AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process)-based negotiation support mechanism (FAHP-NEGO) to support the dynamic negotiation in Electronic Commerce (EC). Most of former researches proposed the negotiation support mechanisms, which were based on quantitative conditions only. In real-world case, however, it was crucial to have qualitative negotiation conditions such ...
