Web-based multi-attribute analysis model for engineering project evaluation

This paper is concerned with development of web-based multi-attribute evaluation model for engineering project. Major technologies used for this study are; analytic hierarchy process (AHP), multi-attribute utility with multi-echelon structure and integrating the prioritized set of evaluated results. In this study, we developed a 3-step approach, three sub-modules are: (1) web-based brainstorming module for idea and alternative generation, (2) web-based AHP and Fuzzy AHP module for evaluation of alternatives, and (3) priority integration module to aggregate the multiple rank-ordered sets based on fuzzy set priority. Finally, we have developed a systematic and practical computer program and it has been found that the proposed model is potentially efficient and useful in evaluating engineering project through examples. However, the proposed model can provide engineering decision makers to get the best alternative.
