This study deals with the application of Fuzzy AHP method for evaluating Green supply chain management strategies for cement manufacturing company. The strategies are calculated by the model of Fuzzy AHP, the main attributes, sub attributes and measurement indicators are defined based on the cement manufacturing process. The weights are calculated based on the pair-wise comparison of matrices o...

Underground mining method selection is one of the most crucial decisions that should be made by mining engineers. Choosing a suitable underground mining method to carry out extraction from a mineral deposit is very important in terms of the economics, safety and the productivity of mining operations. The aim of this study is developing a fuzzy model to selection the optimum mining method by usi...

The problem of machine tool selection among available alternatives has been critical issue for most companies in fast-growing markets for a long time. In the presence of many alternatives and selection criteria, the problem becomes a multiple-criteria decision making (MCDM) machine tool selection problem. Therefore, most companies have utilized various methods to successfully carry out this dif...

Every complex problem now days require multicriteria decision making to get to the desired solution. Numerous Multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) approaches have evolved over recent time to accommodate various application areas and have been recently explored as alternative to solve complex software engineering problems. Most widely used approach is Analytic Hierarchy Process that combines ma...

MCMD problems with fuzzy preference information on alternatives are essential problems of the importance of weighting and ranking. In this study, the AHP method is reviewed, and then Fuzzy PreRa and incomplete linguistic preference relations methods are elucidated. This study applied above three MCDM methods to a software selection problem proposed by Lai et al. [Software selection: a case stud...

The supplier selection exercise is a critical factor towards the success of a company. This paper compares four different methods to support decision makers in selecting the most appropriate supplier. When using Fuzzy logic, the importance of each criterion gets influenced by the level of decomposition in the hierarchical model. Fuzzy logic does not have the capability to measure the level of c...

E-alliance is the union of e-commerce and its success and efficiency is related to comprehensive quality of e-commerce. Thus, ranking e-commerce websites in e-alliance is of importance, which is a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) problem. This paper proposes an evaluation model based on analytic hierarchy process (AHP), fuzzy sets and technique for order performance by similarity to ideal ...

The study adopted the method of Herrera-Viedma et al.,(2004): consistent fuzzy preference relations (Fuzzy PreRa) to apply the questionnaire which Zhilin Yang et al.(2005) developed. The result shows that the most important of the five-dimension is “Usability” and the most important of the nineteen items is “Relevant information to the customer”. Compared to the traditional AHP method, Fuzzy Pr...

Analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is a utility theory based decision-making technique, which works on a premise that the decision-making of complex problems can be handled by structuring them into simple and comprehensible hierarchical structures. However, AHP involves human subjective evaluation, which introduces vagueness that necessitates the use of decision-making under uncertainty. The vagu...

The problem of network selection across heterogeneous wireless networks has recently received much attention because of a drive for converged communication systems. However, since the selection of an access network depends on several parameters with different relative importance, such as the network and the application characteristics, the user preferences, the service cost, etc, it is a diffic...
