Making decisions in hierarchic and network systems
TLDR
This paper summarises a mathematical theory of the measurement of both tangible and intangible factors and its generalisation to dependence and feedback, the Analytic Hierarchy Process and its application to making complex multicriteria decisions.Abstract:
This paper summarises a mathematical theory of the measurement of both tangible and intangible factors, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and its generalisation to dependence and feedback, the Analytic Network Process (ANP) and illustrates their application to making complex multicriteria decisions.read more

A Decision Support System methodology for selecting wind farm installation locations using AHP and TOPSIS: Case study in Eastern Macedonia and Thrace region, Greece
TL;DR: This paper presents a methodology which is based on the combination of a MCDM methodology called Analytical Hierarch Process (AHP) and GIS in order to determine the most suitable locations for wind farms installation.

An aggregation method for solving group multi-criteria decision-making problems with single-valued neutrosophic sets
TL;DR: A novel method that uses single-valued neutrosophic sets (NSs) to handle independent multi-source uncertainty measures affecting the reliability of experts’ assessments in group multi-criteria decision-making (GMCDM) problems is developed.

Developing consistent scenarios to assess flood hazards in mountain streams.
TL;DR: This work presents a methodological perspective based on an expert-based methodology to unfold natural hazard process scenarios in mountain streams to retrace their probabilistic structure by means of Formative Scenario Analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Developing an assessment framework for managing sustainability programs
TL;DR: Results show that product design for sustainability and green supply chain management are the most important factors in supplier selection, which is consistent with earlier results in the paper which showed environmental protection has the highest priority index among the three components of TBL.

A practical ANP-QFD methodology for dealing with requirements’ inner dependency in PSS development
Mario Fargnoli,Nicolas Haber +1 more
TL;DR: The proposed methodology based on the analysis of the market demand and customer requirements by means of the Quality Function Deployment for Product Service System (QFDforPSS) and the Analytic Network Process (ANP) methods can be valuable for theory development and also for practitioners in the PSS field.

The magical number seven, plus or minus two: some limits on our capacity for processing information
TL;DR: The theory of information as discussed by the authors provides a yardstick for calibrating our stimulus materials and for measuring the performance of our subjects and provides a quantitative way of getting at some of these questions.

The magical number seven plus or minus two: some limits on our capacity for processing information
TL;DR: The theory provides us with a yardstick for calibrating the authors' stimulus materials and for measuring the performance of their subjects, and the concepts and measures provided by the theory provide a quantitative way of getting at some of these questions.

Procedures for Synthesizing Ratio Judgements
J. Aczel,Thomas L. Saaty +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the requirements for functions synthesizing judgements (quantities or their ratios), in particular separability, associativity or bisymmetry, cancellativity, consensus, reciprocal or homogeneity properties are investigated and all functions satisfying them are determined.
