Remanufacturing has emerged as a competitive strategy for manufacturers to tackle environmental and economic challenges. In this paper, an integrated fuzzy approach is developed for the evaluation of remanufacturing alternatives. Then, importance weights of main remanufacturing processes and evaluation criteria are obtained through fuzzy extent analysis. Fuzzy hierarchical TOPSIS is then applie...

There are various methods regarding project selection in different fields. This paper deals with an actual application of construction project selection, using two aggregation operators. First, the opinion of experts is used in a model of group decision making called intuitionistic fuzzy TOPSIS IFT . Secondly, project evaluation is formulated by dynamic intuitionistic fuzzy weighted averaging D...

Bio-medical waste management is critical for ensuring public health and environmental sustainability. However, due to the inherent ambiguities complexities involved with characteristics disposal techniques, measuring efficiency of bio-medical systems presents major hurdles. This study provides a Fuzzy TOPSIS-based (Technique Order Preference by Similarity Ideal Solution) strategy thorough asses...

in this paper has been used a new integrated method of fuzzy topsis and zero-one integer linear programming for location selection of bahman group company facilities and manufacturing stations of affairs. selected criteria and constraints are dividing to the explicit and implicit categories. candidate alternatives have been selected from current and useable points of company. the first criteria...

An extension of TOPSIS (technique for order performance by similarity to ideal solution), a multi-attribute decision making (MADM) technique, to a group decision environment is investigated. TOPSIS is a practical and useful technique for ranking and selection of a number of externally determined alternatives through distance measures. To get a broad view of the techniques used, we provide a few...

Taking into consideration technology acceptance factors, website service quality and specific holdup cost factors, this research explores how shopping websites to establish their competitive advantages through these dimensions. We begin with an examination of the literature on shopping websites about its competitive advantages upon which we propose a conceptual framework. Then this research ado...

the importance and various applications of information technology have made fundamental changes in all organizations. the aim of the present study was to identify and prioritize the obstacles to the application of information technology in sport and youth offices using fuzzy topsis technique. the study had an application purpose and used a descriptive-survey methodology and data were collected ...

Considering the fact that, in some cases, determining precisely the exact value of attributes is difficult and that their values can be considered as fuzzy data, this paper extends the TOPSIS method for dealing with fuzzy data, and an algorithm for determining the best choice among all possible choices when the data are fuzzy is also presented. In this approach, to identify the fuzzy ideal solu...

Decision making is a process common to human beings. The uncertainty and fuzziness of problems demand the use of the fuzzy linguistic approach to model qualitative aspects of problems related to decision. The recent proposal of hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets supports the elicitation of comparative linguistic expressions in hesitant situations when experts hesitate among different linguisti...

in the  present study, after investigating the theoretical bases and results of previous  researches and identifying the most important indicators and sub-indicators of human resource management affecting organizational performance, weighting and ranking the indicators were performed using the questionnaire (first) and applying the fuzzy ahp technique, in which the highest ranks were allocated ...
