Papers
This section presents a collection of AHP/ANP papers. Whether you are a student, academic and/or professional in the field of decision making, you can help us expand this collection by sharing your papers on decision making with the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the Analytic Network Process (ANP).

Paper results for keyword: RankingMaking and validating complex decisions with the AHP/ANP
Thomas SaatyJournal: Journal of Systems Science and Systems EngineeringSeveral examples that serve to validate the AHP/ANP with matrices hierarchies and networks are given in this paper. They are then followed by a discussion of the real numbers and how they are generated without the need for an absolute zero, and how they define an absolute scale of measurement tha...
Read MoreUncertainty and rank order in the Analytic Hierarchy Process
Thomas Saaty, Luis VargasJournal: European Journal of Operational ResearchThe Analytic Hierarchy Process uses paired comparisons to derive a scale of relative importance for alternatives. We investigate the effect of uncertainty in judgment on the stability of the rank order of alternatives. The uncertainty experienced by decision makers in making comparisons is measur...

Read MoreDecision making, new information, ranking and structure
Thomas SaatyJournal: Mathematical ModellingThe rank of a set of alternatives can change if a new criterion is introduced into the set of criteria, but it can also change if the importances of the criteria depend on the number of alternatives and on the strength of their ranking. As a result a new alternative may change the relative order ...
Read MoreRanking countries according to economic, social and political indicators
Kirti Peniwati, T HsiaoJournal: Mathematical ModellingDespite its inadequacies, the GNP is still the best known and most widely used economic indicator to measure development. A number of authors have considered otherrelevant indicators, such as life expectancy, infant mortality, literacy and so on, as measures of development. In this paper we offer...
Read MoreAssessing and Ranking HALMAS Parks in Malaysia: An Application of Importance-Performance Analysis and AHP
Rafikul Islam, Fatima El MadkouriJournal: Journal of Islamic MarketingThis paper aims to measure the level of importance and satisfaction on a number of items in the day-to-day running of the halal parks in Malaysia and to rank a selected halal parks on the basis of a number of performance criteria.
Read MoreAnalytic hierarchy process and bank ranking in Serbia
Jaksic Milena, Mimovic Predrag, Todorovic VioletaJournal: IndustrijaThe determination of the financial identifiers by the implementation of the
horizontal and vertical analysis, for each year separately, and then their mutual
comparison for certain periods of time as well, enables the perception of the general
financial situation of banks during a certain peri...
