An Algorithmic Approach to Surgical Decision Making in Acetabular Retroversion

An algorithmic approach to service and content deployment decision making

companies, interconnect a large number of devices as well as persons. Within such networks, content can be exchanged and services can be utilised. The more complex such networks become, the more opportunities might exist to choose a desired service or content. If multiple of those choices need to be made periodically or in short time, manual selection may not be a suitable procedure. From this ...

An AHP-Delphi Multi-Criteria Decision Making Model with Application to Environmental Decision-Making

An Evolutionary Approach to Group Decision Making

We propose modeling Group Support System (GSS) search tasks with Genetic Algorithms. Using explicit mathematical models for Genetic Algorithms (GAs), we show how to estimate the underlying GA parameters from an observed GSS solution path. Once these parameters are estimated, they may be related to GSS variables such as group composition and membership, leadership presence, the specific GSS tool...

An approach to ordinal decision making

We describe the problem of decision making under ignorance and discuss the need of introducing a decision attitude or disposition in solving this problem. We show the OWA operators provide a general framework for evaluating the alternatives when the payoffs are numeric values. We then turn to the problem of decision making when the payoffs are linguistic values drawn from an ordinal scale. A so...

An integrated Decision-Making Approach for Road Transport Evaluation in a Sustainable Supply Chain

One important step to achieve a sustainable transportation system is to control the impact and evaluate the effect of various influencing factors toward three dimensions of sustainability. Within this context, diverse analytical approaches have been developed to assess the sustainability level of various transportation systems, however, sustainability evaluation based on fuzzy multiple criteria...
