MULTI-CRITERIA DECISION MAKING IN CIVIL ENGINEERING. PART II – APPLICATIONS

Applications of Multi-criteria Decision Making in Software Engineering

Every complex problem now days require multicriteria decision making to get to the desired solution. Numerous Multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) approaches have evolved over recent time to accommodate various application areas and have been recently explored as alternative to solve complex software engineering problems. Most widely used approach is Analytic Hierarchy Process that combines ma...

Hesitant q-rung orthopair fuzzy aggregation operators with their applications in multi-criteria decision making

The aim of this manuscript is to present a new concept of hesitant q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets (Hq-ROFSs) by combining the concept of the q-ROFSs as well as Hesitant fuzzy sets. The proposed concept is the generalization of the fuzzy sets, intuitionistic fuzzy sets, hesitant fuzzy sets, and Pythagorean fuzzy sets as well as intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy sets (IHFSs) and hesitant Pythagorean fuz...

Evaluation of recommender systems: A multi-criteria decision making approach

The evaluation and selection of recommender systems is a difficult decision making process. This difficulty is partially due to the large diversity of published evaluation criteria in addition to lack of standardized methods of evaluation. As such, a systematic methodology is needed that explicitly considers multiple, possibly conflicting metrics and assists decision makers to evaluate and find...

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

Prioritizing Rangeland Improvement Practices using Multi-Criteria Decision Making Approach

Selecting the appropriate rangeland improvement method is a challenging task for range managers because it requires consideration of  various criteria. This study was  aimed to evaluate various restoration and reclamation practices in the rangelands of Semirom-Isfahan using Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) methods. Grazing management, water point development, pit seeding, exclosure, water ...
