Intelligent building (IB) technologies have widespread applications in the building design and development. In this regard, it is necessary to develop intelligent building assessment models in order to satisfy the clients, professionals, and occupants' growing demands. To this end, this paper proposes an integrated analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and preference degree approach (PDA) under the ...

In both the quality improvement and the design of a product, the engineering characteristics affecting product performance are primarily identified and improved to optimize customer needs (CNs). Especially, the limited resources and increased market competition and product complexity require a customer-driven quality management and product development system achieving higher customer satisfacti...

here, we propose a fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (fahp) method to evaluate the alternatives of enterprise resource planning (erp) system. the fuzzy ahp approach allows the users get values more accurately to model the vagueness which changes according subjective ideas in the decision-making environment for erp system selection problem. therefore, fuzzy ahp method is used to obtain firm decis...

The paper analysis students’ evaluation issues in case teaching mode. The evaluation indexes were selected by expert experience and fuzzy prioritization method. Thus the students’ grade evaluation as a multidimensional index system of case teaching is established as a reasonable method based on Analytic Hierarchy Process, AHP. It can raise the equity of score and the enthusiasm of students from...

in order to survive in today's competitive world, organizations are looking to increase their efficiency and effectiveness. therefore, they should focus on inputs that are more important than the rest of the inputs in their success. this paper aimed at ranking 7ms (management, man power, marketing, material, machinery, methods and money) and their sub-criteria of production in iran. by imp...

In fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (fuzzy AHP) method, it is difficult to ensure a consistent pairwise comparison. Furthermore, establishing a ...

abstract nowadays, fuzzy technique is used to prepare the map in different sciences, extensively. with due attention to important role of soil fertility in modern agriculture, the preparation of soil fertility map seems to be necessary to plan for appropriate using of fertilizers for crops. this study was conducted to prepare a distinct map for evaluating soil fertility according to soil availa...

At present, more and more attentions have been paid to dam risk management around the world. In order to deal with the fuzziness and randomness of dam failure, the cloud model was introduced into the risk assessment of dam failure, which was combined with Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) method and fuzzy theory, and then the multilevel fuzzy comprehensive assessment of dam failure risk was reali...

Analytical hierarchy process (AHP) as multiple criteria decision making tools can be used in the problems with spatial nature like selection of construction contractor. In this study the application of AHP and its weakness and strength and ultimately the fuzzy modified analytical hierarchy process (FAHP) is proposed after the concept of fuzziness, uncertainty and vagueness. A triangular fuzzy u...

In looking for different types of large-scale activities of food sanitation supervision and security modes, improving the efficiency of food hygiene protection, this paper establishes the evaluation index system for sports food hygiene, and proposed the sports food hygiene evaluation model based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the interval fuzzy TOPSIS method. AHP is used to determi...
