The purpose of this paper is to study the existing approaches of ordering interval grey numbers in the context of decision...

... and TOPSIS principals are fused in the second phase to fabricate a significant agile supplier selection model. Findings A merged approach accompanying multiple measures is developed for aiding decision making and for modeling qualitative characteristics of agile arena under grey domain. The present work...

..., then both distances can be aggregated to reflect information about two aspects. Findings – This dynamic decision-making method not only aggregates the existing state of alternatives all of the stages, but also excavates the change information from vertical and horizontal direction, the decision result...

...Shuli Yan; Sifeng Liu Purpose – With respect to multi-stage group risk decision-making problems in which all the attribute values take the form of grey number, and the weights of stages and decision makers are unknown, the purpose of this paper is to propose a new decision-making method based...

... important. The aim of this study is to propose an integrated multi‐criteria decision‐making (MCDM) approach based on intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) and grey relational analysis (GRA) for green supplier selection. Design/methodology/approach Green supplier selection is a MCDM process that contains...
