Convergence of information and communication technology has brought a radical change in the way data are collected or generated for ease of multi criterion decision making. The huge data is of no use unless it provides certain information. It is very tedious to select a best option among an array of alternatives. Also, it becomes more tedious when the data contains uncertainties and objectives ...

Contractor selection is one of the most important aspects in construction contract. This paper suggests importance of various multi criteria decision making models for contractor selection problem in Indian context. The study includes identifying the different criteria for bid evaluation and the means by which different decision making models may be used to evaluate the contractors with respect...

nowadays, by the expansion of information technology in human life and dependence of business upon it, data protection, as one the most valuable and critical assets of the organization, has become the vital tool of modern industry and prerequisite for sustaining business process. in order to face the challenges and to take advantage of new opportunities brought forth by it advances we suggest o...

In this paper, a generic method based on fuzzy aggregation operator for multi-criterion decision-making problems in design additive manufacturing is proposed. Firstly, power weighted Maclaurin symmetric mean Hamacher T-norm and T-conorm constructed via combination of numbers, average operator, weights, operational rules numbers T-conorm. Based the solving then developed. After that, an example ...

environmental factors are one of the most sensitive issues that should be considered in many decisions. site selection is one of the most widely used spatial decision making problems and is influenced by many environmental factors. the purpose of site selection is to find a set of appropriate spatial alternatives for a particular application. site selection is a multi-criteria decision making p...

With regard to the importance of scientific decision-making in power plants prioritization to produce electrical energy (power) from renewable energies (purified), in this paper, research with specialists opinions with respond to questionnaires provided upon three efficient operational criterion in position of three presented power plant in country which used wind, solar water energies for prod...

Decision making is an important issue in business and project management that assists finding the optimal alternative from a number of feasible alternatives. Decision making requires adequate consideration of uncertainty in projects. In this paper, in order to address uncertainty of project environments, interval type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2FSs) are used. In other words, the rating of each alternativ...

most of data in multi-attribute decision making (madm) problems are changeable rather than constant and stable. therefore, sensitivity analysis after problem solving can effectively contribute to making accurate decisions. in this paper, we offer a new method for sensitivity analysis in multi-attribute decision making problems in which if the weights of one attribute changes, then we can deter...

abstract— in this paper, a new extended method of multi criteria decision making based on fuzzy-topsis theory is introduced. fuzzy mcdm algorithm for determining the best choice among all possible choices when the data are fuzzy is also presented. using a new index leads to procedure for choosing fuzzy ideal and negative ideal solutions directly from the fuzzy data observed alternatives.in this...
