species selection based on a new method such as a fuzzy method is one of the most important stages in the successful plantation management planning as choosing a suitable species for the site can be the key to success. this paper is based on a fuzzy extension of the technique or order preference which is similar to ideal solution (topsis) method. the purpose of this paper is to develop fuzzy to...

SOME wa SaT DECISIONS ARE EASY. If yOU nt to fly from New York to n Francisco as cheaply as possible, you simply find the airline offering the lowest fare and buy a ticket. You have only a single ohjective, so you need to make only a single set of comparisons. But having only one objective, as any decision maker knows, is a rare luxury. Usually, you're pursuing many different ohjectives simulta...

Maintenance strategy plays a very important role in all kind of manufacturing industries. Each maintenance strategy has their characteristics, importance and drawbacks. Performance of a machine depends on the type of maintenance strategies employed on it. Machines used in industries need proper maintenance because failure of machine may cause the production loss. Maintenance strategy may vary f...

We show how a simple modification of the splitting method based on Gibbs sampler can be efficiently used for decision making in the sense that one can efficiently decide whether or not a given set of integer program constraints has at least one feasible solution. We also show how to incorporate the classic capture-recapture method into the splitting algorithm in order to obtain a low variance e...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a method used for measuring the efficiency of decision-making units‎. unlike the standard models‎, ‎which assume decision-making units to be a black box‎, ‎network data envelopment analysis focuses on the internal structure of these units‎. ‎some researchers have developed a two-stage method where all the inputs are entirely used in the first stage‎, ‎producin...
