Design and implementation of a collaboration-based AHP evaluation system

AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) is used to make decision in many fields. There are many tasks to be completed artificially in an AHP evaluation. Traditional AHP evaluation systems rarely support collaborative evaluation among many experts and the decision maker. The paper presents the design and implementation of a collaboration-based AHP evaluation system. In its architecture, workflow technology is used to implement collaboration among different experts, MVC framework based on web is adopted to organize modules, and Ajax technology is used to provide friend user interface. Based on the architecture, a prototype is developed, using Struts2, jBPM and jQuery.
