the rapid development of internet and electronic businesses have stimulated the banking sector towards encouraging customers to internet banking (ib), however, the evidence indicates a lack of interest in the use of ib services. therefore, this paper aims to identify affecting factors on customer adoption from ib and measure the influence of each factor on ib adoption. based on an explorative l...

The problem of machine tool selection among available alternatives has been critical issue for most companies in fast-growing markets for a long time. In the presence of many alternatives and selection criteria, the problem becomes a multiple-criteria decision making (MCDM) machine tool selection problem. Therefore, most companies have utilized various methods to successfully carry out this dif...

according to the limit of resources in the subject of prioritization, one of the alternative methods is mcdm method. generally, mcdm models have been developed under certainty while we confront with under uncertainty in real world. in hierarchical mcdm methods, one of the main steps is to weigh criteria and computes each alternative weight using defined criteria in the next steps. one of the ea...

The number and variety of educational mathematics mobile applications (EMMAs) make it difficult to select for learning teaching. Therefore, in this study, multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques, which are effectively used a wide disciplines, were applied choose among alternative according specified criteria. In context, was aimed determine the 13 considered EMMAs that work on Android-...

The objective of this article is to develop an empirically based framework for formulating and selecting a product launch strategy. Managers usually face Fuzzy decision scenarios. Traditional decision-making methods fail to satisfy a manager’s need in this regard. Thus, a hierarchical fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making (Fuzzy MCDM) method for evaluating a new product launch strategy is propos...

Multicriterion decision making (MCDM) has emerged as an effective methodology due to its ability to combine quantitative and qualitative criteria for selection of the best alternative. Concurrently, fuzzy logic is gaining importance due to its flexibility in handling imprecise subjective data. In the present study two fuzzy logic-based MCDM methods, namely similarity analysis (SA) and decision ...

Energy is a critical factor to obtain a sustainable development for countries and governments. Selection of the most appropriate energy alternative is a completely critical and a complex decision making problem. In this paper, an integrated multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methodology based on type-2 fuzzy sets is proposed for selection among energy alternatives. Then a roadmap has been cr...

This paper suggests ranking alternatives under fuzzy MCDM (multiple criteria decision making) via an centroid based ranking approach, where criteria are classified to benefit qualitative, benefit quantitative and cost quantitative ones. The ratings of alternatives versus qualitative criteria and the importance weights of all criteria are assessed in linguistic values represented by fuzzy number...
