This paper presents a new decision making approach for group multi-criteria evaluation for green supply chain management strategies, which clubs green procurement , manufacturing , green service to customer and environmental management process with order allocation for dynamic supply chains to cope market variations. More specifically, the developed approach imitates the knowledge acquisition a...

Risk assessment of urban network using traffic indicators determines vulnerable links with high danger of traffic incidents. Thus Determination of an appropriate methodology remains a big challenge to achieve this objective. This paper proposed a methodology based on data fusion concept using Fuzzy-AHP and TOPSIS to achieve this aim. The proposed methodology tries to overcome two main problems,...

Ecological civilization evaluation is an important part of the sustainable development strategy. However, because of subjective and objective reasons, it is becoming increasing clear that much data or information is of poor quality, which has serious effects on the research results. With the analysis on the cause and process of the low quality data, this article presents a fuzzy evaluation meth...

Recently, there emerge a variety of clouds in sky and thus, several similar cloud services (from different cloud venders) can be provided to a mobile end device. The goal of cloud-path selection is to find an optimal cloud-path pair between the mobile device and a cloud among a certain class of clouds that provide the same service, in order to carry out the offloaded computation tasks. It is ea...

In order to resolve cases related to an alternative selection problems (MADM problems), various methods have been applied. Many methods are used to solve the MADM problems, which sometimes give different results. To resolve MADM problem, we can use AHP and TOPSIS methods. The advantages of AHP method are it can provide solutions through the analysis of quantitative and qualitative decision. In ...

In this study, an outsourcer evaluation and management system is developed for a manufacturing company by use of Fuzzy goal programming (FGP). A first phase of the methodology evaluation criteria for outsources and the objectives of the company are determined. Considering the fuzziness in the decision data, linguistic variables that can be expressed in generalized fuzzy number are used. The pro...

In the context of intelligent home energy management in smart grid, the occupants’ consumption behavior has a direct effect on the demand and supply of the electrical energy market. Correspondingly, the policies of the utility providers affect consumption behavior so techniques and tools are required to analyse the occupants’ preferences, habits and lifestyles in order to support and facilitate...

The main purpose of this paper is to provide a method of multi-criteria decision making that combines interval neutrosophic sets and TOPSIS involving the relative likelihood-based comparison relations of the performances of alternatives that are aggregated into interval numbers. A fuzzy cross-entropy approach is proposed to state the discrimination measure between alternatives and the absolute ...
