Selection of an appropriate Multiple Attribute Decision Making (MADM) method for providing a solution to given MADM problem is always challenging endeavour. The challenge even greater situations where specific there exist multiple methods with similar degree suitability. Technique Order Preference by Similarity Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) and its dominant variant the Modified TOPSIS are two very ap...

With the wide spread popularity of social networking sites (SNS), enterprise organizations have started to explore the business opportunities in SNS such as Facebook to conduct targeted marketing and reputation management. Customers or users tend to trust the opinion of other customers or users, especially those with prior experience of a product or service, rather than company marketing. One o...

The increasing rate of technology growth has resulted in decrease in cost of information. These technologies are helpful in coordinating the activities resulting in effective management of the supply chain. Literature shows that the use of Information Technology (IT) plays an important role in managing the processes of SCM. This has resulted in increasing use of IT in SCM. The computerization o...

This paper extended TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity Ideal Solution) method for solving Two-Level Large Scale Linear Multiobjective Optimization Problems with Stochastic Parameters in the righthand side of the constraints (TL-LSLMOP-SP)rhs of block angular structure. In order to obtain a compromise ( satisfactory) solution to the (TL-LSLMOP-SP)rhs of block angular structure ...

Due to an increased awareness and significant environmental pressures from various stakeholders, companies have begun to realize the significance of incorporating green practices into their daily activities. This paper proposes a framework using Fuzzy TOPSIS to select green suppliers for a Brazilian electronics company; our framework is built on the criteria of green supply chain management (GS...

TOPSIS is a multicriteria decision making technique based on the minimization of geometric distances that allows the ordering of compared alternatives in accordance with their distances from the ideal and anti-ideal solutions. The technique, that usually measures distances in the Euclidean norm, implicitly supposes that the contemplated attributes are independent. However, as this rarely occurs...

Interruption is occurred by partial participation of workflows with adding new activity to a worker. A concerned worker to the interrupted workflow must restructure task assignment to improve consumed operating time by interruption. An opportunity of decision making is occurred to the workers to select appropriate tasks. However, preassignment of tasks to workers includes an expectation of supe...
