The suppliers selection is a multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problem. Since the decision maker (DM)s like preferences on alternatives or on attributes of suppliers are often uncertain, and thus the selection of good suppliers becomes more difficult. Grey theory is one of the methods that are used to study uncertainty, it is superior in mathematical analysis of systems with uncertain i...

In some multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) models studying attributes’ interactive phenomena is very important for the minimizing decision risks. Usually, Choquet integral type aggregations are considered in such problems. However, do not consider all interactions; therefore, many cases, when these interactions revealed less degree, they perceive and their utility MADM problems useful. For ...

This paper proposes a method for ranking decision making units (DMUs) using some of the multiple criteria decision making / multiple attribute decision making          (MCDM /MADM) techniques, namely, interval analytic hierarchy process (IAHP)          and the technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS).          Since the efficiency score of unity is assigned to ...

The engineers can frequently encounter with the situation to select the optimum option among the alternatives related with tunneling operations. The optimum choice can be selected by the experienced engineers taking into consideration their judgment and intuition. However, decision-making methods can offer to the engineers to support their optimum selection for a particular application in a sci...

The rush of the humanitarian suppliers into disaster area proved to be counter-productive. To reduce this proliferation problem, present research is designed provide a technique for supplier ranking/selection in response using principles utility theory. A resource allocation problem solved optimisation based on decision maker’s preferences. Due lack real-time data first 72 h after strike, Decis...

This paper presents a SWOT analysis of SEA systems in the Middle East North Africa region through a comparative examination of the status, application and structure of existing systems based on country-specific legal, institutional and procedural frameworks. The analysis is coupled with the multi-attribute decision making method (MADM) within an analytical framework that involves both performan...

A new method is proposed to solve the multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problems with the trapezoid fuzzy linguistic variables ( Vs TFL ) based on the trapezoid fuzzy linguistic hybrid harmonic averaging (TFLHHA ) operator. To begin with, this paper reviews the concept and operational rules of the Vs TFL , the calculation method of the possibility degree with Vs TFL , and the comparison...

Multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) is commonly used to investigate fuzzy information effectively. However, selecting the best alternative not always symmetric because alternatives do have complete information, so asymmetric often involved. Expressing under uncertainty using closed subintervals of [0, 1] beneficial and effective instead crisp numbers from 1]. The goal this paper enhance noti...
