Abstract

Information and communication technology (ICT) enable information to be accessed and processed through all kinds of visual, audio, printed and written tools. This study aimed to evaluate the ICT development of G7 countries by using Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) methods. Accordingly, the Entropy method was used to specify the criteria weights, and the Proximity Indexed Value (PIV), Range of Value (ROV), and the COmplex PRoportional ASsessment (COPRAS) methods were used to rank the alternatives. In the final stage, the rankings obtained by the Entropy based PIV, ROV, COPRAS methods were compared with the results obtained by the Level Based Weight Assessment (LBWA) based Measurement Alternatives and Ranking according to Compromise Solution (MARCOS) method, and a comparative analysis was performed. Finally, it was determined that the criteria weights obtained by objective and subjective methods had different effects on the ranking results.
