This paper presents a novel multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) methodology for assessing and prioritizing medical tourism destinations in uncertain environment. A systematic evaluation and assessment method is proposed by incorporating Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Multi-Attribute Border Approximation area Comparison (MABAC) methods in rough number. Rough number effectively aggrega...

This work focuses on the use of mult i-criteria decision-making method AHP for using in educational and vocational guidance. Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), proposed by the mathematician Thomas Saaty in 1980, is a method of analysis greatly used in the context of a mult i-criteria analysis; it allows the comparison and the choice between the preset options. To achieve this goal, a vital wor...

In this work the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method has been used to evaluate the best action to be performed by a public transit company with reference to a general goal aimed at customer satisfaction. The tested procedure can help the planner to select the most effective action with reference to the general goal by using in optimal way the available resources.

Land-use suitability is the ability of a given type of land to support a defined use. Analysis of land-use suitability requires the consideration of a variety of criteria, not only the natural/physical capacity of a land unit, but also its socioeconomic and environmental impact implications. As land suitability is assessed within a Geographic Information System (GIS) environment, it is formulat...

This research uses the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) to analyze key factors in evaluating and screening strategic alliance partners in the telecommunications industry. Telecommunications companies can utilize key factors of strategic alliances to provide self-growth and obtain competitive advantage opportunities for expanding global market share. This research summarizes the evaluation and...

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are comprised of energy constrained nodes. This limitation has led to the crucial need for energy-aware protocols to produce an efficient network. The concept of heterogeneity has been introduced in a WSN by deploying a large number of low power sensor nodes and a small number of more powerful nodes to serve as cluster heads (CHs). We propose a sleep scheduling s...

This paper proposes to use geographic visualization principles in conjunction with multicriteria evaluation methods to support spatial decision-making. Interactive maps can be combined with analytical tools to explore various settings of multi-criteria evaluation parameters that define different decision-making strategies. In a case study, the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) is used to calcu...

A majority of performance measurements have used input and outcome data to assess project performance in past research. Each performance criterion of input and outcome, however, should have different importance in performance measurement according to the character and objective of the project. Unfortunately, there has been relatively little research on criterion of project performance measureme...

Talent evaluation is a very important part in the human resources development and management process, and it has certain implications for talent prediction and planning, allocation and management, and training. In this paper, the author makes a fuzzy evaluation model of creative talents based on analytic hierarchy process. By using fuzzy analytic hierarchy process, we combine qualitative indica...

Cloud computing has emerged as a result of continuous development in the field of information technology. It is expected that most of the enterprises will adopt this new computing model in the near future. There are three main deployment models in cloud computing, namely, public, private, and hybrid cloud. To implement the cloud service, enterprises have to choose one of these deployment models...
