This paper applies fuzzy set theory to evaluate the service quality of online auction. Service quality is a composition of various criteria. Among them many intangible attributes are difficult to measure. This characteristic introduces the obstacles for respondent in replying to the survey. So as to overcome this problem, we invite fuzzy set theory into the measurement of performance. By using ...

The theory of grey system is used when sufficient information of the community under study is not in hand. The grey forecast model is proper when the information variety is fix and certain. Grey model can apply some additional computations to improve forecasting activities when data is insufficient. Through using improved grey model, the assessment error decreases significantly. This study made...

Vulnerability assessment is one of the effective ways to prevent cascading failures a distribution network (DN). Aiming accurately identify vulnerable parts DN, comprehensive method based on Technique for Order Preference by Similarity Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) considering topological structure and operation status proposed. Considering radial topology structural vulnerability indices complex the...

Multiple attribute decision making is important in many decision making contexts where tradeoffs are involved. The use of qualitative input has proven especially attractive, allowing subjective inputs to be used. However, such systems inherently involve uncertainty with respect to parameter inputs, especially when multiple decision makers are involved. This paper presents the method of grey rel...

In this paper we propose a fuzzy TOPSIS (Technique for Order Performance by Similarity to Idea Solution) model using O(m, n)-Trapezoidal Type Fuzzy Number (O(m,n)-Tr.T.F.N.) and possibility theory. An application in the form of an example to the vendor selection problem in supply chain management is presented towards the end of the paper to highlight the salient points in the proposed possibili...

This paper applies a new multi attribute decision-making (MADM) model to help companies for enterprise resource planning (ERP) selection problem based on Balanced Score Card method. This paper uses three-parameter interval grey numbers which is derived from Grey theory (was proposed by J. Deng). This numbers is used instead of linguistic variables. Beside, a new weighting method that outcomes f...
