This paper presents a structured methodology for Information Systems (IS) outsourcing decision problem. The problem of selection among candidate information systems of the IS can be formulated as Multi criteria decision making (MCDM) techniques. Thus, this paper proposes a fuzzy group decision making process to evaluate and select the appropriate Information System Project (ISP) based on fuzzy ...

After 1 July 2006, a major challenge that the manufacturing industry has to confront now is the effect of the lead-free equipment system selection process on companies’ capital expenditure decision. With capital investment, the criteria may be financial (e.g. expected cash flows) and non-financial (e.g. product quality). We use a systems approach with the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP)...

In this paper, we apply fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) method in the decision process of Cognitive Radio Networks (CRN) spectrum handoff. Based on the pre-determined target spectrum list model, considering the multiple indicators which influence the handoff performance, we designed a spectrum handoff method based on spectrum reservation strategy. Simulation results show that the algori...

In order to study temperature distributions under different influencing factors and evaluate the cooling performance of turbocharger bearing casing, water-cooling system experiments regarding casing are carried out, an improved fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) evaluation method for evaluating its design is proposed firstly. Then, effects various such as cooling-water inlet flow velocity,...

At present, the demand for a third-party logistics service provider has become an increasingly important issue companies to improve customer and reduce costs. Third-party is using another company perform some tasks. There are many ways select logistic provider, like Multi- criteria decision making, statistical approaches, mathematical programming, artificial intelligence, hybrid method (or inte...
