Because of the pressure of globalization in the last two decades, professional services has become an important strategic decision so that supplier selection is a prime concern. In the semiconductor industry, the prior researches worked on analyzing and improving the process, and evaluating the equipment manufacturers. Therefore, being the semiconductor industry applying a wide huge of advanced...

Every complex problem now days require multicriteria decision making to get to the desired solution. Numerous Multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) approaches have evolved over recent time to accommodate various application areas and have been recently explored as alternative to solve complex software engineering problems. Most widely used approach is Analytic Hierarchy Process that combines ma...

Fuzzy AHP is often used in multi-criteria decision analysis. In this paper we consider an example given by Deng [I] and in particular the method used to approximate the fuzzy principle eigenvector of the fuzzy pairwise comparison matrices. We show Nigel Steele Computational Intelligence Group, School of Mathematical and Information Sciences, Coventry University, Priory Street, Coventry. CV1 5FB...

Talent evaluation is a very important part in the human resources development and management process, and it has certain implications for talent prediction and planning, allocation and management, and training. In this paper, the author makes a fuzzy evaluation model of creative talents based on analytic hierarchy process. By using fuzzy analytic hierarchy process, we combine qualitative indica...

Because of the pressure of globalization in the last two decades, professional services has become an important strategic decision so that supplier selection is a prime concern.

Consequently, this study is to identify critical factors related to the wafe...

The returns and risks of high-yield bond (HYB) lie between the stocks and Treasury bonds. In view of investment opportunities and the rate of return, the advantages of HYB are both lower risks and higher shares. Therefore, HYB has become one of important components in the portfolios. The purpose of this study is to identify critical factors related to the selection of HYB. Primary criteria to e...

the aim of this study is to evaluate the obstacles due to a dpsir model combined with fuzzy analytic hierarchy process technique. hence, to prioritize the responses regarding the driving forces, pressures, states and impacts, the hierarchy of the model is established. evaluations and prioritization of model results of urban transport situation in tehran have provided a number of necessary issue...

Beginning with triangular fuzzy inputs representing fuzzy ratio judgments, we experiment with two procedures to obtain fuzzy relative priorities in the Analytic Hierarchy Process. We extend the simple geometric mean and simple normalized column sum methods with fuzzy arithmetic. When the pairwise comparisons are fully consistent the methods produce identical results, but they diverge in the pre...
