Fuzzy Multi-criteria decision making problems

Multi -criteria decision making problems in fuzzy environment has received wide attention from researches in view of its practical application to real life situations. Based on the type of data used to express the different alternatives, different approaches/methodologies are employed to tackle the fuzzy MCDM problems. The mostly used tools to deal with such problems are aggregation operators and score functions. In this monograph we elaborate the use of score functions in solving fuzzy MCDM problems, introduce a new weighted geometric aggregation operator, discuss the drawbacks and short comings of the existing score functions and emphasize the need for new score functions to overcome the existing deficiencies. Some new score functions based on a new type of fuzzy set are defined and some theoretical properties of these functions are established. These score functions are used in solving the most general fuzzy MCDM problems with the help of new methodology. A comparative analysis is also carried out to establish the supremacy and efficient working of the new methods and the new score functions.

Zusammenfassung

The year is 1453. For more than a thousand years the mighty walls of Constantinople have protected the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire, the furthest outpost of Christianity. But now endless ranks of Turkish warriors cover the plains before them, their massive cannons trained on the ramparts. It is the most fearsome force the world has ever seen. No European army will help: the last crusaders were cut to pieces by the Turks on the plains of Kosovo. Constantinople is on its own. And treachery is in the air.

Three people will struggle to determine the fate of an empire: the young Turkish Sultan, returned from exile and desperate to prove his greatness; a stubborn Byzantine princess, sworn to protect her city; and a mercenary captain with a personal score to settle. But of them, it is the hardened soldier Giovanni Longo who will face the worst choice: just as he prepares to make his final stand, he finds he has something to live for after all.

From the intrigues within the Emperor's household to the Sultan's harem and the savage fights on the battlements, Siege is a full-blooded historical adventure novel in the tradition of Warrior of Rome, Pilgim or Crusade.
