Estimating Weights in Analytic Hierarchy Process Using LP and Optimizing Of Human Resource Allocation

Journal Title: IOSR journal of Business and Management - Year 2018, Vol 20, Issue 6

Abstract

The Analytic Hierarchy Processestimates the weights of alternatives by deriving priorities of a comparison matrix. In this paper, we used two phasesLinear Programming (LP) models to estimate the weights of a pairwise comparison matrix derived within the framework of the Analytic Hierarchy Process when eigenvector method fails to satisfy element dominance properties. The first phase brings a consistency bound and it is used in the second phase to derive priority vector. The priorities obtained for the alternatives served as the coefficients of the objective function of linear programming to optimize a human resource problem as an example. Here we show which positions to fill, how to allocate resources.
