considering the contemporary business settings, managers’ role is more than essential to the viability and further development of an organization. managers should possess such skills in order to effectively cope with the competition. multiple attributes decision making (madm) is an approach employed to solve problems involving selection from among a finite number of alternatives. the aim of thi...

implementation of the risk management concepts into construction practice may enhance the performance of project by taking appropriate response actions against identified risks. this research proposes a multi-criteria group decision making approach for the evaluation of different alternative response scenarios. to take into account the uncertainties inherent in evaluation process, fuzzy logic i...

making decision has become one of the most challenging responsibilities of managers in recent decades. finding the optimum solution for multiple criteria decision making problems is complicated. notably, multiplicity of decision making indices accompanied by variability in quantitative and qualitative measures aggregates the complexity of decisions. operations research (or) and multiple criteri...

the development of multiple criteria decision making techniques is to provide the possibility of using multiple criteria in decision making problems. multi-criteria decision making problems primarily relate to choosing the best option among several available options and according to some indicators. one of the major issues in this regard is to determine the importance weights of decision criter...

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 ...
