Testability is an essential criterion for software quality and it is always difficult to measure. Multicriteria Decision Making (MCDM) approaches are very effectively and widely used in predicting the quality of the software. MCDM techniques are very helpful in ambiguous range of decisions. It has the ability to grip the uncertainty of pairwise comparisons. In this paper, multicriteria decision...

This study presents a new early warning evaluating method and decision mechanism for urban emergency in which the risk factors are assessed by fuzzy numbers. By using the fuzzy preference relation matrix and the extended fuzzy AHP, the relative weight of each risk factor can be estimated. Then we evaluate the total fuzzy risk value by aggregating the severity of loss of risk factor and the rela...

Chou et al. (Applied Soft Computing 12 (2012) 64-71) used combination of fuzzy AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) and fuzzy DEMATEL (Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory) in human resource for science and technology (HRST). For applying the fuzzy DEMATEL method there is a need to find the multiplicative inverse of a fuzzy matrix. In this paper, it is pointed out that the method, used b...

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...

In the agile virtual enterprise forming process, with the increase of optional scheme, to use the traditional analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to choose ally will produce judgment matrix inconsistency problem. Therefore, combining the AHP and the fuzzy theory, a new ally selection method which is based on web is proposed. The proposed method uses the AHP to calculate the weight of the evaluatin...

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...
