Decision making for supermarket food purchase decisions are characterized by network relationships. This paper analyzed factors that influence supermarket food selection and proposes a supplier evaluation index system based on the whole process of food production. The author established the intuitive interval value fuzzy set evaluation model based on characteristics of the network relationship ...

Due to the increasing competition of globalization, selection of the most appropriate supplier is one of the key factors for asupply chain management’s success. Due to conflicting evaluations and insufficient information about the criteria, Intuitionisticfuzzy sets (IFSs) considered as animpressive tool and utilized to specify the relative importance of the criteria. The aim of this paper is to...

Advances in science and innovative technologies are providing new opportunities to develop test methods and strategies that may improve safety assessments and reduce animal use for safety testing. These include high throughput screening and other approaches that can rapidly measure or predict various molecular, genetic, and cellular perturbations caused by test substances. Integrated testing an...

Blockchain technology is emerging and has high potential to improve transform the agricultural supply chain. This study investigates critical barriers blockchain adoption in Vietnamese chain using a novel interval-valued hesitant fuzzy Decision-Making Trial Evaluation Laboratory (IVHF-DEMATEL) approach. The IVHF-DEMATEL technique applied identify cause-and-effect relationships draw influence-re...

The global agri-food sector is in a dire need of transitioning into sustainable consumption and production patterns. circular economy concept offers viable pathway to improve resource efficiency recover value from food loss waste. Although China has made strategic component its national development strategy, it faced multiple barriers which persisted the full-scale implementation production. We...

The fashion industry, during production and post-consumption, has major adverse environmental impacts. With the recent circular economy (CE) practices initiative, discarded materials are reused to recover value from waste. However, CE initiative have not been well-received by society. role of is very crucial in industry as it helps lowering burden caused materials, which turn help achieve susta...

In recent years, some methods have been proposed in solving performance evaluation issues by using fuzzy set theory. In this paper, an improvised method for performance evaluation under fuzzy environment is presented. Fuzzy linguistic variables are used throughout the process and the aggregated fuzzy numbers which are based on the standard score concept are employed in aggregating the fuzzy ass...

The Internet of Things (IoT) has been considered in various fields the last decade. With increasing number IoT devices community, secure, accessible, and reliable infrastructure for processing storing computed data become necessary. Since traditional security protocols are unsuitable devices, implementation is fraught with privacy challenges. Thus, blockchain technology an effective solution to...

the expansion of major cities regardless of the scientific planning principles has led to theemergence of negative urban development impacts in iran such as the degradation of natural resources andvarious forms of pollution. undoubtedly, urban rivers can enhance the ecological value of the earth to anoptimal extent. however, to benefit from these potentials, appropriate planning looks inevitabl...
