Abstract The task of benchmarking smart e-tourism applications based on multiple key concept attributes is considered a multi-attribute decision-making (MADM) problem. Although the literature review has evaluated and benchmarked these applications, data ambiguity vagueness continue to be unresolved issues. robustness fuzzy decision by opinion score method (FDOSM) weighted with zero inconsistenc...

Selection of appropriate material is a crucial step in engineering design and manufacturing process. Without a systematic technique, many useful engineering materials may be ignored for selection. The category of multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) methods is an effective set of structured techniques. Having uncomplicated assumptions and mathematics, the MULTIMOORA method as an MADM appro...

maintain and enhance the quality of human resources and achieve maximum value from it industry employees is the most important concern of managers. most of researches in this area focus on companies’ endeavour to recruiting qualified experts in the it industry in the next decade. the selection of qualified personnel for organizations which focus on human resouces as a strength, will be a major ...

this paper presents a multi-attribute decision-making model to rank and select the best zones of the city of tehran in order to add new emergency services. the purpose of this decision-making problem is to prioritize the zones having a higher need to emergency services, so that the emergency services to people in different zones get optimized. a multi-criteria decision making model is presented...

Purpose: In this article, we combine this new approach based on the concepts of Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) to evaluate and select the best supplier. Design/methodology/approach: Supplier evaluation is a Multi-Attribute Decision-Making (MADM) problem that is affected by quantitative and qualitative factors, some of which may conflict. Since most of th...

one of the most effective tools for decline cost and time, quality improvement and consequently project performance enhancement especially in construction projects, is value engineering. there are linguistic judgments in many cases of value engineering studies in construction projects such as interior design, mechanical installations design, and etc. therefore multiple attribute decision-making...

Implementation of an ecosystem approach to natural resource management requires evaluation of a broad array of ecological services in a multidimensional, community-based watershed approach that empowers people to make informed management decisions. Conventional economic approaches that assign values to ecological services (contingent valuation) or that evaluate the efficiency of preserving and ...

The engineers can frequently encounter with the situation to select the optimum option among the alternatives related with tunneling operations. The optimum choice can be selected by the experienced engineers taking into consideration their judgment and intuition. However, decision-making methods can offer to the engineers to support their optimum selection for a particular application in a sci...
