Abstract: One of basic principle of any organization is to assure about obtained figures from measuring products. If the measured data was not trusted, will be lead to a wrong decisions regarding the approval or rejection of products and obviously the cost would be great. First cases in measurement systems analysis which crossing minds are criteria for approval or rejection any mea...

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 paper analyses the problem of ranking accuracy in multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods. The methodology for measuring the accuracy of determining the relative significance of alternatives as a function of the criteria values is developed. An algorithm of the Technique for the Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) that applies criteria values’ transformation t...

delphi as a consensus development technique enables anonymous, systematic refinement of expert opinion with the aim of arriving at a combined or consensual position. in this study, we determined the criteria and their weights for iranian medical schools' ranking through a delphi process. an expert committee devised 13 proposed criteria with 32 indicators with their weights, which were arranged ...

The paper considers a technique for ordering objects that are described with many quantitative and/or qualitative attributes and may exist in several copies. Such multi-attribute objects may be represented as multisets or sets with repeating elements. Object ordering is based on the theory of multiset metric spaces and applied to ranking enterprises, which are estimated differently by several d...
