There are various methods for obtaining the preference vector of pair-wise comparison matrix factors. These methods can be employed when the elements of pair-wise comparison matrix are crisp while they are inefficient for fuzzy elements of pair-wise comparison matrix. In this paper, a method is proposed by which the preference vector of pair-wise comparison matrix elements can be obtained even ...

The higher education system in India is changing at an unprecedented rate. Having an effective system for evaluating the quality is an essential key to realizing the goals of education. The adoption of the fuzzy formalism is a possible solution to the standardization in the domain of quality of education. In this paper, an analytical tool has been developed to find the important attributes whic...

The aim of this study is to provide an analytical tool to select the best software providing the most customer satisfaction. The three type of softwares were examined and the most important criterias were taken into account by the customers while they were selecting their softwares. The fuzzy analytic hierarchy process was used to compare this softwares. The means of the triangular fuzzy number...

We propose a new MCDM method based on fuzzy pair-wise comparisons and a feedback between the criteria. The evaluation of the weights of criteria, the variants as well as the feedback between the criteria is based on the data given in pair-wise comparison matrices. Extended arithmetic operations with fuzzy numbers are used as well as ordering fuzzy relations to compare fuzzy outcomes. An illustr...

enterprise architecture (ea) is a discipline for understanding, engineering, and managing different components of an enterprise and their interrelationships. moreover, because the risk and impact of ea are pervasive across the enterprise, it is critical to perform an architecture assessment before making any decision about choosing a scenario. this paper provides an approach based on fuzzy anal...

In this paper, we first use a fuzzy preference relation with a membership function representing preference degree forcomparing two interval-valued fuzzy numbers and then utilize a relative preference relation improved from the fuzzypreference relation to rank a set of interval-valued fuzzy numbers. Since the fuzzy preference relation is a total orderingrelation that satisfies reciprocal and tra...

 This paper deals with measuring inconsistency and incompatibility of pair-wise comparison matrix with fuzzy elements. Here we deal with some properties of such pair-wise comparisons, particularly, reciprocity consistency and compatibility. Moreover, we show how to measure it defining two new indices. The first index of inconsistency is based on the classical concept of consistency, however, i...

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...
