Abstract In a portfolio selection problem, the first step is to choose suitable stocks at the right time. Many approaches and principles have been used to help investor solve the problem. This paper documents a new approach for the portfolio selection problem based on the combined method of Constrained Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (CFAHP) and the Preference Ranking Organization Method for E...

The problem of chunk-based resource allocation for the uplink of Long Term Evolution is investigated. In this paper, a combined order using the promethee method and analytic hierarchy decision for chunk allocation algorithm is proposed. The utility of each order is sorted based on promethee method approach so that the utility of each order could be approximated as the average of all criteria on...

Selecting the best mining method among many alternatives is a multicriteria decision making problem. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the implementation of an integrated approach that employs AHP and PROMETHEE together for selecting the most suitable mining method for the "Coka Marin" underground mine in Serbia. The related problem includes five possible mining methods and eleven criteri...

This paper presents a new approach based on Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA), named PROMETHEE-SAPEVO-M1, through its implementation and feasibility related to the decision-making process regarding evaluation of helicopters attack Brazilian Navy. The proposed methodology aims present an integration ordinal into cardinal procedure from PROMETHEE method, enabling perform qualitative quantit...

multi attribute decision making methods are considered as one of the most useful methods for solving ranking problems. in some decision making problems, while the alternatives for corresponding criteria are compared in a pairwise comparison manner, if the criteria are inherently fuzzy, debates will arise in ranking alternatives due to the closeness of the values of the criteria. in this researc...
