rapid technological and economic growth over the last several decades has changed human lives and made modern society face complex decision making problems. these kinds of problems are characterized by incommensurate and conflicting criteria or objectives such as cost, reliability, performance, safety and productivity. multi criteria decision making is an approach that can be used to deal compl...

aesthetics relates to felt meaning generated from sensory perceptions, and involves subjective, tacit knowledge rooted in feeling and emotion. we believe the aesthetics of management is important, but little understood, aspect of organizational life. we propose that followers use their aesthetic senses in making these assessments. in this article we try to discover the role of aesthetic in man...

in this paper, a novel hybrid model based on neural network and game theory is proposed to support the analyzers in oil market. in this model, first the neural network is utilized to learn the oil prices associated with opec production level and usa imports level. then the learned neural network is applied by a game model. finally the nash equilibrium points of the game present the optimum deci...

in this current study a generalized super-efficiency model is first proposed for ranking extreme efficient decision making units (dmus) in stochastic data envelopment analysis (dea) and then, a deterministic (crisp) equivalent form of the stochastic generalized super-efficiency model is presented. it is shown that this deterministic model can be converted to a quadratic programming model. so fa...

introduction: one of the types of hospital management information systems is decision support information system (dsis). this system uses decision-making models and databases for preparing specific information to support their semi-structured or unstructured decisions. the present study aimed to design a decision dsis model for board of trustees of ayatollah kashani hospital, shahrekord, iran. ...

the multi-criteria decision making model is an important tool for decision making in water resource management. in this paper, the topsis model was used to rank seven flood management options in the gorganrood river flood management project, including conservation of natural condition, golestan reservoir management, levee construction, diversions-channel construction, flood forecasting and warn...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is one of the scientific method that computes the efficiency by using a powerful mathematics basic. data envelopment analysis is a non-parametric technique to evaluate the efficiency of a set of decision making units (dmu) with multi inputs and outputs . since dea’s models classifies decision making units into two categories of efficient and inefficient, so most ...
