    Evaluating Projects Based on Intuitionistic Fuzzy Group Decision Making
    (Hindawi Ltd, 2012) Rouyendegh, Babak Daneshvar
    There are various methods regarding project selection in different fields. This paper deals with an actual application of construction project selection, using two aggregation operators. First, the opinion of experts is used in a model of group decision making called intuitionistic fuzzy TOPSIS (IFT). Secondly, project evaluation is formulated by dynamic intuitionistic fuzzy weighted averaging (DIFWA). Intuitionistic fuzzy weighted averaging (IFWA) operator is utilized to aggregate individual opinions of decision makers (DMs) for rating the importance of criteria and alternatives. A numerical example for project selection is given to clarify the main developed result in this paper.

    The Dea and Intuitionistic Fuzzy Topsis Approach To Departments' Performances: a Pilot Study
    (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2011) Rouyendegh, Babak Daneshvar
    This paper processes a unification of Fuzzy TOPSIS and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to select the units with most efficiency. This research is a two-stage model designed to fully rank the organizational alternatives, where each alternative has multiple inputs and outputs. First, the alternative evaluation problem is formulated by Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and separately formulates each pair of units. In the second stage, we use the opinion of experts to be applied into a model of group Decision-Making (DM) called the Intuitionistic Fuzzy TOPSIS (IFT) method. The results of both methods are then multiplied to obtain the results. DEA and Intuitionistic Fuzzy TOPSIS ranking do not replace the DEA classification model; rather, it furthers the analysis by providing full ranking in the DEA context for all units by aggregate individual opinions of decision makers for rating the importance of criteria and alternatives.

    Selecting the Best Project Using the Fuzzy Electre Method
    (Hindawi Ltd, 2012) Rouyendegh, Babak Daneshvar; Erol, Serpil
    Selecting projects is often a difficult task. It is complicated because there is usually more than one dimension for measuring the impact of each project, especially when there is more than one decision maker. This paper is aimed to present the fuzzy ELECTRE approach for prioritizing the most effective projects to improve decision making. To begin with, the ELECTRE is one of most extensively used methods to solve multicriteria decision making (MCDM) problems. The ELECTRE evaluation method is widely recognized for high-performance policy analysis involving both qualitative and quantitative criteria. In this paper, we consider a real application of project selection using the opinion of experts to be applied into a model by one of the group decision makers, called the fuzzy ELECTRE method. A numerical example for project selection is given to clarify the main developed result in this paper.
