A fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making methodology to optimise olive agro-engineering processes based on geo-spatial technologies
2016
In southern Italy, the olive oil sector is an important part of the primary sector and its development requires support from research to ensure its sustainability. This work proposes the first step for set up a decision support system (DSS) for establishing mechanisation in agricultural operations for different olive groves. To contribute to this goal researches have been carried out to test the ability of remote sensing (RS) and geographic information system (GIS) to map olive groves and their agronomic characteristics. In detail, this study aimed to classify olives grove areas in terms of agronomic suitability and detect horticultural characteristics of olive groves in order to develop a …

Allocation of logistic risk-investment in public-private-partnership – use of fuzzy TOPSIS method
2018
Appropriate risk assessment related to the project, and then its distribution between partners is the core of cooperation in the framework of public-private partnership (PPP). Risk analysis for investment project in the PPP formula includes: preliminary identification of risks associated with the investment, preliminary assessment and forecast of probability of occurrence of risks in the recommended option of investment implementation, initial analysis of the distribution of risks between a public and private entity depending on the legal and organizational model adopted, including the determination of the appropriate separation between the parties to the contract. The article presents the …
Combined fuzzy TOPSIS and AHP-based methodology for the prioritization of maintenance key performance indicators: Application to an oil refinery plant
2017
A Maintenance Performance Measurement model based on the use of Maintenance Key Performance Indicators (MKPIs) is proposed in the present paper. Referring to a specific industrial context, a multi-level hierarchical structure is firstly designed to highlight the most meaningful perspectives which affect the maintenance performance. Then, MKPIs selected from the literature or properly formulated to detail some particular perspective of the investigated maintenance process are assigned to the hierarchical framework and prioritized by a Fuzzy Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (FTOPSIS) and Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP)-based approach.

W pracy przedstawiono wielokryterialną metodę podejmowania decyzji: rozmytą metodę TOPSIS. Jest to alternatywa dla metod AHP, TOPSIS, ELECTRE lub PROMETHEE. W pracy przedstawiono możliwość zastosowania rozmytej metody TOPSIS w zarządzaniu łańcuchem dostaw żywności (FSCM). W tym celu przedstawiono krótki przegląd literatury. Następnie przedstawiono rozmytą metodę TOPSIS, na końcu artykułu pokazano możliwość zastosowania metody do rozwiązania problemu.
Multi-Criteria Decision Making support system for pancreatic islet transplantation
2011
Pancreatic islet transplantation consists of replacing insulin-producing cells to restore normal glycemia in diabetic patients. This is a minimal invasive procedure that has been proved successful. Unfortunately unpredictability of islet transplant outcome remains a frustrating and costly issue limiting the clinical implementation of this procedure. Multiple variables are involved in the procedure and assessment is subjective to individual operators. The aim of this study was to generate a system expressing the probability of transplant success in relation to four classes of identified variables (donor, organ, isolation and recipient). We have proposed the utilization of Multi-Criteria Deci…
Clean Agent Selection Approached by Fuzzy TOPSIS Decision-Making Method
2008
Abstract. It is well known that halons are ozone-depleting substances and their release into the atmosphere has contributed in the last decades to the reduction in the ozone layer. In consequence to the Montreal Protocol, an international agreement designed to gradually eliminate the use of such substances, fire protection industry researchers faced the challenge of finding effective solutions to replace halon extinguishers. This research aims to provide a method to support the decision maker in the selection of the most suitable extinguisher substance for a specific application. According to such framework, a set of quantitative and qualitative criteria has been established in the decision…
