Multiple Attribute Decision Making (MADM) is one of the best candidate network selection methods used for Vertical Handover Decision (VHD) in heterogeneous wireless networks (4G). Selection of the network in MADM is predominantly decided by two steps, i.e., attribute normalization and weight calculation. This dependency in MADM results in an unreliable network selection for handover, and in a r...

This paper presents an interval-based multi-attribute decision making (MADM) approach in support of the decision process with imprecise information. The proposed decision methodology is based on the model of linear additive utility function but extends the problem formulation with the measure of composite utility variance. A sample study concerning with the evaluation of electric generation exp...

Recently, the TODIM has been used to solve multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problems. The single-valued neutrosophic sets (SVNSs) are useful tools to depict the uncertainty of the MADM. In this paper, we will extend the TODIM method to the MADM with the single-valued neutrosophic numbers (SVNNs). Firstly, the definition, comparison, and distance of SVNNs are briefly presented, and the ...

This paper presents an integrated multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) approach to aid selection of commercially available materials in the context of sustainable design. The MADM couples grey relational analysis (GRA) with an analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to rank alternative materials in terms of their economic, environmental, and social performance. AHP is used to determine the correspon...

Abstract: Enterprise architecture (EA) frameworks are used to ensure interoperability of information systems and improve the effectiveness and efficiency of business organisations. Several methods have been proposed for selecting suitable frameworks. Although these methods are useful, none of them captures the uncertainties inherent in multi-attribute framework selection problems that embrace b...

delay in implementation and delivery of projects of general contractors working in oil, gas and petrochemical projects, together with their law profits, are the main reasons for writing this paper. it has been tried in t6he article to present an actual and applied method of decision making to determine strategic goals, strategic planning and its relation with the standards of project management...

The ongoing research in the field of decision-making can be analyzed from different perspectives. Research trends indicate that multi-attribute (MADM) methods have a significant impact on engineering and management scientific areas. Since many problems existing mentioned areas are associated with certain level uncertainty, type 2 fuzzy sets represent common solution for enhancement conventional...

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...

Multi-Attribute Decision Making (MADM) is used to select the best alternative from multi-alternatives based on multi-attribute (fashion material) and multi-criteria (sustainable fashion). Multi-alternatives are cotton, linen, silk, wool, acrylic, nylon, polyester, rayon, spandex, mixed. Multi-attributes material, texture, color, characteristic, comfort, wearability. Multi-criteria material fibe...

introduction tourism is a process which has been existed with all its special forms from the ancient times so that the mental, cultural, social and economic demands of the human beings can be met. one of the growing branches of this industry is named as ecotourism. nowadays, tourism has become one of the main levers of economic and social development in many regions of the world. tourism in the...
