Alessio Ishizaka, Philippe Nemery

Open publisher page 46 citations

Abstract

This chapter explains the theory behind and practical uses of the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method as well as its extensions. It considers a case study on shop location problem to illustrate the different steps of the AHP process. The chapter describes MakeItRational a software package that helps to structure problems and calculate priorities using AHP. It explains the methodological background of AHP, and covers the extensions of AHP in group decision, sorting, scenarios with incomparability and large size problems.
