driver’s requirement in route guidance system Caixia Li , Sreenatha Gopalarao Anavatti, Tapabrata Ray University of New South Wales @ Australian Defence Force Academy [email protected] Abstract-Route choice mechanism is the key technology of the route guidance system. This paper focuses on the integration of the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) and fuzzy logic theory to realize th...

Based on features of distance education and its disadvantages in terms of learning evaluation, this study uses Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and fuzzy mathematics theory to study distance education. First, an electric file is generated for each learner. Then a practical multi-hierarchy evaluation model is built based on AHP. Finally, evaluation of on-line education is done based on informati...

Fuzzy AHP is often used in multi-criteria decision analysis. In this paper we consider an example given by Deng [I] and in particular the method used to approximate the fuzzy principle eigenvector of the fuzzy pairwise comparison matrices. We show Nigel Steele Computational Intelligence Group, School of Mathematical and Information Sciences, Coventry University, Priory Street, Coventry. CV1 5FB...

This paper discusses the strengths and weaknesses of the Preference Ranking Organisation MeTHod for Enrichment Evaluations (PROMETHEE) and analytic hierarchy process (AHP) methods. Building upon this analysis, recommendations are formulated to integrate into PROMETHEE a number of useful AHP features, especially as regards the design of the decision-making hierarchy (ordering of goals, sub-goals...

In view of the existing problems of investment risks assessment on high-tech industry projects such as a lack of systematic, with too much subjectivity and from the point to improve assessment efficiency and effectiveness, the paper combined Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) with BP Neural Network to establish a new and suitable risk assessment model of high-tech projects. Firstly, we applied AH...

In this paper, we propose two algorithms. The first supports Enhanced Best effort Quality of service Routing with Multiple and Prioritised Metrics (EBQRMPM). The second supports Enhanced Best effort Quality of service Routing with Multiple Metrics (EBQRMM). Both algorithms apply the concept of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) which is a well-known model in the area of decision making with m...

Often, construction projects fail to achieve their time, budget, and quality goals. This is frequently due to the failure of the contractor to analyze and assess unanticipated risks. The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is a new approach that can be used to analyze and assess project risks during the bidding stage of a construction project and to overcome the limitations of the traditional appr...

Python and C# are two programming languages of great educational value. Python has a simple and clear syntax, as well as a concise and readable source code, but is relatively slow, and its industrial applications are mostly web-based. Although the syntax and code readability of C# does not match the Python’s high level, they are not very bad either; besides, the .NET language offers a fast JIT ...

This paper aims to develop a model that assists the international retailer in selecting the country that maximizes the degree of fit between the retailer’s goals and the country characteristics in his initial internationalization move. A two-stage multi criteria decision model is designed integrating the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Goal Programming. Ethical, cultural, geographic and ec...

The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) proposed by T. L. Saaty has been widely used in decision making. Inner dependence method AHP is used for cases in which criteria or alternatives are not independent enough and using the original AHP or inner dependence AHP may cause results to lose reliability because the comparison matrix is not necessarily sufficiently consistent. In such cases, fuzzy repr...
