Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) is an increasingly widely-diffused practice among companies that are seeking to improve their environmental performance. This study designates green supply chain management (GSCM) evaluation model in publishing industry by using fuzzy AHP approach. Our proposed model is applied in Sooreh Mehr Publication as one of the best companies in this sector. Research ...

Multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) involves techniques which relatively recently have received great increase in interest for their capabilities of solving spatial decision problems. One of the most frequently used techniques of MCDA is Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). In the AHP, decision-makers make pairwise comparisons between different criteria to obtain values of their relative import...

In this paper, the application of the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (Fuzzy AHP) combined with a set of criteria analysis for the selection of appropriate sites for the development offshore wind energy in Taiwan is presented. The Fuzzy AHP was first conducted to rank the importance and identify the key factors of offshore wind energy successfully. From the numerical results, eight key factors...

The purpose of this research paper is to develop a framework to understand the consumer’s preference affecting variables and consumer’s perception choice in telecommunication service providers in India. The present study use a hybrid approach to access the relative efficiency based on fuzzy AHP and DEA model. The fuzzy AHP is used to determine weights of the consumer’s preference as criteria an...

Success of an e-business company is strongly associated with the relative quality of its website compared to that of its competitors. The purpose of this study is to propose a multi-attribute e-business website quality evaluation methodology based on a modified fuzzy TOPSIS approach. In the proposed methodology, weights of the evaluation criteria are generated by a fuzzy AHP procedure. In perfo...

Recently, Calantone, Di Benedetto, and Schmidt [2] presented an Analytic Hierarchy Process (Am) modeling approach to new product screening. The illustration of this approach is an example of a decision support model that seeks to aid managers in selecting new product ideas to pursue. In this paper we improve upon this initial AHP model using a "fuzzy" mathematical application. This use of fuzzy...

To overcome the difficulty in understanding quantitative evaluation on actually safety assessment, This research proposed a qualitative comprehensive assessment method of fuzzy state based on fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Fuzzy Transform. First of all, the fuzzy comment of multiple assessments by experts should focus on the quantitative evaluation of corresponding triangular fuzzy ...

The non-objective and non-scientific evaluation of sports tourism resources has become a bottleneck which restricts the development of sports tourism industry. In order to make the evaluation of sports tourism resources have more comprehensiveness, accuracy and scientificalness and to promote the healthy and sustainable development of sports tourism industry, this paper, based on the AHP-FUZZY ...

Fuzzy AHP is often used in multi-criteria decision analysis. In this paper we consider an example given by Deng [I] and in particular the method used to approximate the fuzzy principle eigenvector of the fuzzy pairwise comparison matrices. We show Nigel Steele Computational Intelligence Group, School of Mathematical and Information Sciences, Coventry University, Priory Street, Coventry. CV1 5FB...

At present, more and more attentions have been paid to dam risk management around the world. In order to deal with the fuzziness and randomness of dam failure, the cloud model was introduced into the risk assessment of dam failure, which was combined with Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) method and fuzzy theory, and then the multilevel fuzzy comprehensive assessment of dam failure risk was reali...
