Abstract

A decision support system based on scenario for multi-attribute selection of cell formation schemes is developed. The system combines fuzzy set theory and group decision with the AHP to decrease the influence of decision makers’ subjective preferences and control the uncertain and imprecise variations during evaluation process. The importance weights of different criteria and the ratings of various alternatives under different criteria are evaluated in linguistic terms represented by fuzzy numbers. The intangible criteria and criteria weights are determined by group decision which can integrate all decision makers’ subjective opinions based on different scenarios. Besides, fuzzy value of each of the alternatives is computed by making use of standard fuzzy arithmetic. The degree of confidence and risk index are also joined, so that decision makers can adjust them to match real context. Finally, a case of individual selection about cell formation is given, and the results demonstrate the proposed approach is both effective and robust.
