Kabupaten Solok Selatan sangat berpotensi dalam pengembangan kopi Arabika. Hasil identifikasi permasalahan menunjukan belum maksimal nya proses produksi pengolahan buah menjadi green bean , sehingga berakibat kepada mutu dan rendahnya nilai jual . Oleh karena itu perlunya strategi pengambilan keputusan multicriteria yang akurat, menggunakan metode Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP). FAHP m...

Most countries depend on coal-fired thermal power plants (CTPPs) to meet energy demands. However, the adverse environmental impacts of CTPPs also remain a major concern. As generations from renewable resources are still in developing stage, reliance is inevitable. Hence, efficiency has be improved, while decreasing carbon emissions. This study aims identify and evaluate key factors that need ad...

Our objective in this paper is to develop a decision-making model to assist decision-makers and researchers in understanding the effect of multiple criteria decision-making on a capital budgeting investment. This decision-making model helps decision-makers with reducing decision-making time and choosing a suitable decision alternative for a capital budgeting investment within the companies’ goa...

The study mainly aims at looking into the disparities in beneficiary’s socio-economic status between areas without implementation of forestry plans and where had initially been available even though they have recently terminated as well. Babol Roud plan is located Lafoor forest area County, Mazandaran Province, Northeast Iran. This research was divided three steps: first all, by making use Coch...

In this article the design and development of a hierarchical fuzzy logic system is investigated. A new method using an evolutionary algorithm for design of hierarchical fuzzy logic system for prediction and modelling of interest rates in Australia is developed. The hierarchical system is developed to model and predict three months (quarterly) interest rate fluctuations. This research study is u...

Fuzzy systems, neural networks and its combination in neuro-fuzzy systems are already well established in data analysis and system control. Especially, neurofuzzy systems are well suited for the development of interactive data analysis tools, which enable the creation of rule-based knowledge from data and the introduction of a-priori knowledge into the process of data analysis. However, its rec...

Analytical hierarchy process (AHP) as multiple criteria decision making tools can be used in the problems with spatial nature like selection of construction contractor. In this study the application of AHP and its weakness and strength and ultimately the fuzzy modified analytical hierarchy process (FAHP) is proposed after the concept of fuzziness, uncertainty and vagueness. A triangular fuzzy u...

In this paper, a novel approach combining fuzzy data envelopment analysis (DEA) and the analytical hierarchical process (AHP) is proposed to rank units with multiple fuzzy criteria. The hybrid fuzzy DEA/AHP approach derives the AHP pairwise comparisons by fuzzy DEA and utilizes AHP to fully rank units. It shows that the proposed approach generates a logical ranking of units that has perfect com...
