E-alliance is the union of e-commerce and its success and efficiency is related to comprehensive quality of e-commerce. Thus, ranking e-commerce websites in e-alliance is of importance, which is a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) problem. This paper proposes an evaluation model based on analytic hierarchy process (AHP), fuzzy sets and technique for order performance by similarity to ideal ...

Machine tool selection is a very complex procedure. It involves deep analysis of various factors affecting functioning and performance. CNC machine tool selection is also a such kind of problem[5]. Objective of this study is to perform various MCDM methods for selecting most appropriate machine tool. AHP method is used to calculate the weights of various criteria[10] . The numerical problem con...

Increases in populations and in particular in developing countries are placing increased pressure on both natural and agricultural resources. In many cases, especially in semi-arid regions, the pressures are compounded by restricted agricultural lands. Reliable and relevant land evaluation is a requirement for land use policy and decision making to support sustainable rural development. Land ev...

Decision making in Software Engineering plays an important role at different stages of Software development life cycle. In this paper we consider the case study of selecting one among the three Content Management Systems (CMS) for a university website. We use our Goal-Oriented Requirements Engineering (GORE) method to identify the soft goals which play a vital role in deciding which CMS is chos...

As international corporate activities increase, their staffing involves more strategic concerns. However, foreign assignments have many differences, and dissatisfaction with the host country is a known cause of expatriate failure. From the point of view of an expatriate candidate, the decision of whether to take an expatriate assignment can be regarded as a FMCDM (fuzzy multiple criteria decisi...

A fusion system sometimes requires the capability to represent the temporal changes of uncertain sensory information in dynamic and uncertain situation. A Bayesian Network can construct a coherent fusion structure with the hypothesis node which cannot be observed directly and sensors through a number of intermediate nodes that are interrelated by cause and effect. In some BN applications for ob...

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...

This paper introduces the AHP, entropy value method, TOPSIS method and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation in analyzes advantages disadvantages of four from perspectives subjectivity objectivity, acceptance decision makers, difficulty evaluation. The depends on amount initial data, AHP research results are too subjective, conclusions do not fit reality, may have poor resolution. Finally, suggestions...
