چکیده

This paper presents a review of various multi-criteria decision analysis techniques. The focus of this research is to identify suitable techniques to be used to assign weights between different factors that influence user acceptance of software technology in the healthcare industry. Three widely known methodologies used for identifying, classifying and evaluating various alternatives are briefly described, namely the Analytic Hierarchy Process, Fuzzy Cognitive Maps and Fuzzy AHP, in order to identify the applicability and suitability of each in addressing our research problem.

A Common Weight Multi-criteria Decision analysis-data Envelopment Analysis Approach with Assurance Region for Weight Derivation from Pairwise Comparison Matrices

Deriving weights from a pairwise comparison matrix (PCM) is a subject for which a wide range of methods have ever been presented. This paper proposes a common weight multi criteria decision analysis-data envelopment analysis (MCDA-DEA) approach with assurance region for weight derivation from a PCM. The proposed model has several merits over the competing approaches and removes the drawbacks of...

A Proposed Combination Method for Ranking Options in Multi-Criteria Decision Making by Data Envelopment Analysis and Common Set of Weights

The purpose of this paper is to fully ranking decision-making units using a combination of multi-criteria decision-making techniques and data envelopment analysis. Due to this fact that weights play an important role in ranking the options by multi-criteria decision-making methods and most of these methods have weakness in using weighting methods, therefore the ability for data envelopment anal...
