This paper introduces multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) into group decision making to propose a multi-criteria group decision making model for credit risk analysis. This model can not only deal with multi-criteria and complicated practical problems, but also reduce individual subjective preference to support group decision-making. In this model, experts’ opinion is integrated by post-expert...

This paper proposes a method for ranking decision making units (DMUs) using some of the multiple criteria decision making / multiple attribute decision making          (MCDM /MADM) techniques, namely, interval analytic hierarchy process (IAHP)          and the technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS).          Since the efficiency score of unity is assigned to ...

Multiple Criteria Decision Making is a formal approach to assist decision makers to select the best solutions among multiple alternatives by assessing criteria which are relatively precise but generally conflicting. The utilization of MCDM are quite popular and common in software development process. In this study, a systematic literature review which includes creating review protocol, selectin...

in this paper, a model has been provided for selecting right portfolio in stock exchange. the ranking of financial industries and companies has been applied for the selection of the right stock in this model. these rankings have been done through promethee decision- making method. technical analysis aims to determine the right time to buy and sell the superior stocks. a survey study is also don...

the rapid development of internet and electronic businesses have stimulated the banking sector towards encouraging customers to internet banking (ib), however, the evidence indicates a lack of interest in the use of ib services. therefore, this paper aims to identify affecting factors on customer adoption from ib and measure the influence of each factor on ib adoption. based on an explorative l...

Various methods, known as Multiple Criteria Decision Making Methods (MCDM), have been proposed to assist decision makers in the process of ranking alternatives. Given the variability of available methods, choosing an MCDM ranking method is a difficult task. There are key factors in the process of choosing an MCDM method such as: (i) available time; (ii) effort required by a given approach; (iii...

This paper discusses the issue of how to solve multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) problems by applying fuzzy logic. Multicriteria decision-making problems often involve a complex decision process in which multiple requirements and fuzzy conditions have to be taken into consideration simultaneously. Fuzzy set theory provides the mathematical technique for the systematic handling of imprecise ...

energy is a critical factor to obtain a sustainable development for countries and governments. selection of the most appropriate energy alternative is a completely critical and a complex decision making problem. in this paper, an integrated multi-criteria decision-making (mcdm) methodology based on type-2 fuzzy sets is proposed for selection among energy alternatives. then a roadmap has been cr...
