Download or read book The Analytic Hierarchy Process written by Thomas L. Saaty and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Planning, priority setting & resource allocation using the multicriteria decision making approach of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). Discover how to structure complex multi-person, multi-criteria, multi-time period problems with uncertainty & risk in hierarchic form, set priorities for the elements in each level according to their impact on the criteria or objectives of the next higher level, articulate your judgments through a series of pairwise comparisons, obtain a precise numerical measurement of the priority of each element, & synthesize all the judgments within the hierarchy to reach a best decision. THE ANALYTIC HIERARCHY PROCESS is a simple, yet powerful decision-making tool for planning, structuring priorities, weighing alternatives, allocating resources, analyzing policy impacts & resolving conflicts. This is the classical book on the AHP giving a complete grounding in the theory along with examples & applications. New theoretical results have been included in this revised & extended edition.

Download or read book The Logic of Priorities written by Thomas L. Saaty and Luis G. Vargas and published by RWS Publications. This book was released on with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does one begin to tackle a complex decision problem involving many qualitative and intangible factors? This book suggests a method, the Analytic Hierarchy Process, which integrates information from a variety of arenas – scientific, social, political and economic – any or all of which may have a bearing on the issue under consideration. Included in the book are many case histories dealing in problems of priority setting, conflict resolution, resource allocation, prediction and portfolio selection. The step-by-step process described can reduce even the most intricate systems problems to a clear, manageable form that is accessible even to laypersons who lack sophisticated technical backgrounds. This book will be of special interest to scholars and professionals in the areas of operations research, management science, and social and behavioral science , as well as to general students and practitioners who would like a new approach to dealing with complex decisions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Management science is a di scipl ine dedicated to the development of techniques that enable decision makers to cope with the increasing complexity of our world. The early burst of excitement which was spawned by the development and successful applications of linear programming to problems in both the public and private sectors has challenged researchers to develop even more sophisticated methods to deal with the complex nature of decision making. Sophistication, however, does not always trans 1 ate into more complex mathematics. Professor Thomas L. Saaty was working for the U. S. Defense Department and for the U. S. Department of State in the late 1960s and early 1970s. In these positions, Professor Saaty was exposed to some of the most complex decisions facing the world: arms control, the Middle East problem, and the development of a transport system for a Third World country. While having made major contributions to numerous areas of mathematics and the theory of operations research, he soon realized that one did not need complex mathematics to come to grips with these decision problems, just the right mathematics! Thus, Professor Saaty set out to develop a mathematically-based technique for analyzing complex situations which was sophisticated in its simplicity. This technique became known as the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and has become very successful in helping decision makers to structure and analyze a wide range of problems.

Download or read book A Novel Neutrosophic Data Analytic Hierarchy Process for Multi Criteria Decision Making Method A Case Study in Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange written by Desmond Jun Yi Tey and published by Infinite Study. This book was released on with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper proposes a multi-criteria decision making method called the neutrosophic data analytical hierarchy process (NDAHP) for the single-valued neutrosophic set (SVNS). This method is an extension of the neutrosophic analytic hierarchy process (NAHP) but was designed to handle actual datasets which consists of crisp values. Our proposed NDAHP method uses an objective weighting mechanism whereas all other existing versions of the AHP, fuzzy AHP and other fuzzy based AHP method in literature such as the NAHP and picture fuzzy AHP uses a subjective weighting mechanism to arrive at the decision. This makes our proposed NDAHP method a very objective one as the weightage of the criteria which forms the input of the evaluation matrix are determined in an objective manner using actual data collected for the problem, and hence will not change according to the opinions of the different decision makers which are subjective. The proposed NDAHP method is applied to a multi-criteria decision making problem related to the ranking of the financial performance of five public listed petrochemical companies trading in the main board of the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange (KLSE). Actual dataset of 15 financial indices for the five petrochemical companies for 2017 obtained from Yahoo! Finance were used in this study. Following this, a brief comparative study is conducted to evaluate the performance of our NDAHP algorithm against the results of other existing SVNS based decision making methods in literature. The results are compared against actual results obtained from KLSE. To further verify the rankings obtained through each method, the Spearman and Pearson ranking tests are carried out on each of the decision making methods that are studied. It is proved that our proposed NDAHP method produces the most accurate results, and this was further verified from the results of the Spearman and Pearson ranking tests.
