Original scientific paper This research gives an overview of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Intuitionistic FuzzyTOPSIS (IFT) methods. This study deals with an evaluation methodology based on the AHP-IFT where the uncertainties are handled with linguistic values. First, the supplier selection problem is formulated using AHP and, then, it is used to determine the weights of the criteria...

AHP is a method for ranking decision alternatives and selecting the best one when the decision maker has multiple criteria (Taylor, 2004). In evaluation n competing alternatives A1, A2,...,An under a given criterion, it is natural to use the framework of pair-wise comparison by n × n square matrix from which a set of preference values for the alternatives is derived. Many methods for estimating...

in order to survive in today's competitive world, organizations are looking to increase their efficiency and effectiveness. therefore, they should focus on inputs that are more important than the rest of the inputs in their success. this paper aimed at ranking 7ms (management, man power, marketing, material, machinery, methods and money) and their sub-criteria of production in iran. by imp...

The aim of this work is to propose a new methodological approach to define customer specifications through the employment of an integrated Quality Function Deployment (QFD) – Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) model. The model, which is loosely based on QFD, incorporates the AHP approach to delineate and rank the relative importance weight of expressed judgments for customer needs and functional ...

one of important problems in supply chains management is supplier selection. in a company, there are massive data from various departments so that extracting knowledge from the company’s data is too complicated. many researchers have solved this problem by some methods like fuzzy set theory, goal programming, multi objective programming, the liner programming, mixed integer programming, analyti...

Original scientific paper Recently companies have begun to use their storage effectively to attain leadership in the market environment, utilizing Barcode and RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) systems for warehouse management. In this study AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) and FAHP (Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process) are used to choose between Barcode and RFID systems for the company warehou...

The conveyor system plays a vital role in improving the performance of flexible manufacturing cells (FMCs). The conveyor selection problem involves the evaluation of a set of potential alternatives based on qualitative and quantitative criteria. This paper presents an integrated multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) model of a fuzzy AHP (analytic hierarchy process) and fuzzy ARAS (additive rati...

Previous review papers on analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) mainly focused on the application areas and paid scant attention to the framework development of AHP, TOPSIS and their hybrid methods. The purpose of this paper is to review the literature on analytic hierarchy process (AHP), type of scale used in AHP, modified ...
