In this paper, from among multi-criteria models in making complex decisions and multiple attribute models for the most preferable choice, technique for order preference by similarity ideal solution (TOPSIS) approach has been dealt with. In some cases, determining precisely the exact value of the attributes is difficult and that, as a result of this, their values are considered as intervals. The...

in recent decades, as a result of population growth, industrial developments, scarcity of sources, etc. more attention has been paid to spatial planning. spatial planning needs the consideration of different goals, scenarios, criterions and constraints, which leads us to the usage of spatial multi-criteria decision analysis (mcda) methods. the mail goal of this research is to develop a novel mo...

In this paper, one of the multi-criteria models in making decision, a Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), is described. Some of the advantages of TOPSIS methods are: simplicity, rationality, comprehensibility, good computational efficiency and ability to measure the relative performance for each alternative in a simple mathematical form. The paper has a r...
