Supplier selection is a multiattribute decision making (MADM) problem which contains both qualitative and quantitative factors. Supplier selection has vital importance for most companies. The aim of this paper is to provide an AHP based analytical tool for decision support enabling an effective multicriteria supplier selection process in an air conditioner seller firm under fuzziness. In this a...

Because of the pressure of globalization in the last two decades, professional services has become an important strategic decision so that supplier selection is a prime concern. In the semiconductor industry, the prior researches worked on analyzing and improving the process, and evaluating the equipment manufacturers. Therefore, being the semiconductor industry applying a wide huge of advanced...

The river ranking problem is a strategic issue and has significant impact on the efficiency of a river system. On the other hand, the river ranking among many alternatives presents a multi criteria decision making (MCDM) problem. Hence fuzzy set theory can be applied. Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy process (FAHP) technique is used to rank alternatives to find the efficient use of the river system. Fu...

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...

This paper proposes a new approach for tackling the uncertainty and imprecision of the service evaluation process. Identifying suitable service offers, evaluating the offers and choosing the best alternatives are activities that set the scene for the consequent stages in negotiations and influence in a unique manner the following deliberations. The prenegotiation problem in negotiations over se...

One of the key challenges in software testing today is prioritizing and evaluating test cases. The decision of which test cases to design, select and execute first is of great importance, in particular considering that this needs to be done within tight resource constraints on time and budget. In practice, prioritized selection of test cases requires the evaluation of different test case criter...

This study aims to investigate and evaluate factors related the knowledge management model at universities in Hanoi, Vietnam. Based on system literature review (SLR) approach, follows descriptive inductive approach results of document process. Eight were synthesized with fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) priority order. Ten experts from seven participated survey. The rank as follows: (1) ...

Researchers and academics are interested in this study because it aims to understand the factors sub-factors that affect selection of Halal products. The researcher was unaware any prior research or studies conducted ascertain how much consumers consider influencing their decision purchase products rate those variables. This paper identify rank top consumers' decisions select Perlis. Through us...

AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) has been widely used in decision making. Inner dependence method AHP is one technique even in case of criteria have dependency. However using original AHP or Inner dependence method, the results often lose reliability because the comparison matrix does not always have sufficient consistency. In these cases, fuzzy representation for weighting criteria and alterna...
