Abstract

The TODIM method (Tomada de Decisao Interativa Multicriterio), which in Portuguese means “Interactive and Multicriteria Decision Making”, is a process of evaluation alternatives, with various academic and professional uses. The current project focuses on the first approach, considering students, professors and investigators as the main beneficiaries and target audience. There is a shortage of software that automate the TODIM method, therefore it is proposed to develop a web application mainly using Python, HTML and JavaScript programming languages that can satisfy this necessity. To guarantee a uniformity in the results obtained by this program, samples of results obtained by this method by other researchers are taken as a basis and guide. To develop the application, the complete functioning of TODIM as an alternative evaluation approach must be understood. In a general view, TODIM uses pairwise comparisons between decision criteria while eliminating the inconsistencies that arise from such comparisons. Thus, the main idea is to measure the degree of dominance in each alternative over the others using the prospective value function. As result, it calculates the overall and partial degrees of dominance of each alternative to finally lead to a classification or “ranking” of the best alternatives.
