چکیده

The selection of the best irrigation system is examined in the multiobjective context for a case study of Sri Ram Sagar Project, Andhra Pradesh, India. Eight performance criteria, on farm development works, environmental impact, supply of inputs, conjunctive use of water resources, productivity, farmers' participation, economic impact and social impact are evaluated for thirteen irrigation systems. Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is employed to overcome the difficulties arising from the complexity, subjectivity and lack of group consensus in the evaluation of an irrigation system. Spearman rank correlation coefficient is employed to assess the correlation between different ranking pattern. Group consensus is achieved through Geometric ranking rule (multiplicative ranking). Studies revealed that AHP is quite accessible and conductive to group consensus building. Comparison of the results indicated that the methodology is quite versatile and can be used in any field of engineering and management with suitable modifications.

A Model-Driven Decision Support System for Software Cost Estimation (Case Study: Projects in NASA60 Dataset)

Estimating the costs of software development is one of the most important activities in software project management. Inaccuracies in such estimates may cause irreparable loss. A low estimate of the cost of projects will result in failure on delivery on time and indicates the inefficiency of the software development team. On the other hand, high estimates of resources and costs for a project wil...
