An integrated interactive menu driven software MCDMGDSS was developed to consider multicriterion analysis in group decision making environment. The capability of MCDMGDSS is demonstrated with the case study of Chaliyar river basin planning problem, Kerala, India to find the most suitable configuration of the reservoirs. Eight alternatives are analysed with respect to six noncommensurable discre...

the rapid pace of changing technology is leading to high rate of import and export between different countries. in outsourcing governmental organizations duties to private sectors, it is a need to control sectors and they should be under assessment policy. this research has been developed to show how the accredited laboratories of iranian standard (isiri) can be assessed for their technical ser...

The purpose of this paper is to streamline the supply corn, one key ingredients in production bioethanol. Using a comprehensive sustainable framework criteria (including social, economic, and environmental dimensions), potential locations corn cultivation Iran are examined from multi-criteria decision analysis perspective. To end, we need find importance relevant evaluation ranking method rank ...

The purpose of this paper is to help decision-makers choose the location a logistics platform with sustainability perspectives. This study presents compensatory and partially approach build composite indicators, using mainly fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making methods. In first instance, full consistency method (F-FUCOM) was used calculate weight criteria sub-criteria. second two aggregation m...

The aim of this paper is to present Decision Support Concept (DSC) for management of construction projects. Focus of our research is in application of multicritera methods (MCM) to decision making in planning phase of construction projects (related to the problem of construction sites selection). The problem is identified as a significant one from many different aspects such as economic aspect,...

Assembly sequence planning (ASP) aims to find an optimal sequence to assemble a product. We propose here to use the ordering genetic algorithms (OGA) to solve this problem. The approach is based on three main ideas. Firstly, the identification of the subassemblies in the sequence is done by keeping trace of the components membership to a set of parts all along the sequence. Secondly, precedence...

Public Venture Capital financing often fail rigorous scrutiny in their selection of high-potential start-ups as compared to Private Venture capital. In some developing countries, decision making on final selection for financial support of early stage but high potential Small and Medium sized Enterprises (SMEs) are often ‘clouded’ by several factors including consideration of political party aff...

A computer program was created to conduct a comparative study of five Multi-Criteria Evaluation Methods (MCEMs), each of which is capable of evaluating alternatives in a resource management setting. The MCEMs included Weighted Average (WA), Preference Ranking Organization METHod for Enrichment Evaluations (PROMETHEE II), Compromise Programming (CP), ELimination and Choice Translating REality (E...
