Selection of cotton fibers in terms their quality value has created a domain emerging interest among the researchers. In this study, newly developed Best-Worst Method (BWM) was integrated with Revised Analytic Hierarchy Process (RAHP) to rank fiber lots on basis six apposite properties namely bundle tenacity, elongation, micronaire, upper half mean length, uniformity index, and short index. Ran...

The Best-Worst Method (BWM) is a Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) method that has recently been introduced. original BWM assumes decision-makers are always certain about their judgments even if, in reality, often express uncertain preferences. To deal with uncertainty, we introduce belief structure the BWM, concept involving preference degree adopted via Dempster-Shafer theory. A new appro...

The generalized interval-valued trapezoidal fuzzy best-worst method (GITrF-BWM) provides more reliable and consistent criteria weights for multiple group decision making (MCGDM) problems. In this study, GITrF-BWM is integrated with the extended TOPSIS (technique order preference by similarity to ideal solution) VIKOR (visekriterijumska optimizacija i kompromisno resenje) methods selection of op...

Phenotypic variances for linear and transformed weight traits were partitioned into residual, direct genetic (D) and maternal genetic (M) components using REML techniques with American Simmental Association data from calves born 1969 to 1985. Variance components were estimated separately from subclasses defined by sex (male, female) and percent Simmental (50, greater than or equal to 75). The m...

Choosing the right supplier has a significant impact on efficiency and productivity of supply chain (SC). Different selection models approaches have been developed for reverse SCs. The lean, agile, resilient, green (LARG) strategy is an innovative paradigm competitiveness sustainability. This study proposes fuzzy-based methodology that integrates fuzzy group best-worst method (FG-BWM) combined ...

Abstract Mobile technology has revolutionised various business processes. Banking is one of them. Traditional banking operations are gradually changing with the introduction efficient mobile technologies. (m-banking) recently emerged as an innovative channel that provides continuous real-time customer service. It expected market for m-banking will expand in near future. There currently types ap...

The aim of this paper is to assess the extent which Sad-Kalan watershed in Iran participates floods and rank sub-watersheds terms flooding potential by utilizing multi-criteria decision-making approaches. We employed entropy a drainage network, stream power index (SPI), slope, topographic control (TCI), compactness coefficient (Cc) investigation. After forming decision matrix with 25 possibilit...

Food security and waste minimisation are the main concerns for management of food supply chains (FSC), as >33 % global production is wasted or lost due to mismanagement. Stakeholders must address ongoing issues, such resource scarcity, climate change, creation etc. create an environment conducive sustainable consumption (SPC) promote economic sustainability. Resource efficiency minimization nec...

The concept of sustainable development is becoming incomprehensible and complex in global supply networks, especially low- middle-income countries (LMIC) that are most affected by ever-changing industry challenges standards. Smart technologies emerged Industry 4.0, sustainability, circular economy (CE) connection, which remain unexplored, can be integrated into the chain as a business strategy ...
