Multi-method and multi-criteria decision analysis of objects in a computerized decision support system
Journal Title: Operations Research and Decisions - Year 2017, Vol 27, Issue 3
Abstract
A multimethod approach to the multicriteria analysis and assessment of objects (rankings, grouping, econometric assessments) have been presented. This issue is a field of research and engineering associated with the construction and application of a computerized decision support system (DSS 2.0). In terms of the proposed approach, the functionality of the developed prototype has been illustrated based on a practical example of the assessment of employees and the analysis of remuneration. The Electre TRI method of grouping derived from a relational model complements ranking methods well (e.g., AHP) based on the functional model. Grouping reveals cases, where all or the vast majority of objects in a ranking were clustered within one class (e.g., in the best or the worst one).

Solving IRPs using location based heuristics
Inventory routing problems (IRPs) occur where vendor managed inventory replenishment strategies are implemented in supply chains. These problems are characterized by the presence of both transportation and inventory cons...
Max-plus algebra as a tool to modelling and performance analysis of manufacturing systems
This contribution discusses the usefulness of (max, +) algebra as a mathematical framework for a class of manufacturing systems. This class can be described as dynamic and asynchronous, where the state transitions are in...
A theoretical framework for determining the appropriate level of subsidy in an economy
A framework has been developed for determining the subsidy that, in the long run, serves to equalize the per capita income shares across income classes. The framework characterizes the income dynamics by the Markov proce...
An analysis of maintenance schedules for public facilities
We present a flexible, formal framework for maintenance scheduling for public facilities. Key features of the model include an accelerating deterioration scheme, a general utility measure, and real estate market effects...
Application of a single sampling plan minimizing the sum of risks in an EOQ model with trade credit
Acceptance sampling by attributes is a universally used statistical tool for quality control. It is a technique that deals with the decision to accept or reject a batch of goods using defined procedures. An attribute sin...
