2 Proceedings of the 007 WSEAS International Conference on Comuter Engineering and Alications, Gold Coast, Australia, January 17-19, method focuses on avoiding the inconsistent solutions in the decision making rocesses The concet of this method is that if there are n attributes X = { x1,, xn, n }, then we can obtain the airwise reference relation data { 1, 3,, n 1n}, from n 1 comaring and constructing a consistent recirocal fuzzy reference relations P This method follows the one of traditional AHP method characteristics, which is reference relation satisfied transitivity roerty Herrera-Viedma et al [3] had roof that for a recirocal additive fuzzy reference relation P= ( i ), the following statements are equivalent: 3 i + k + ki = i< <k (1) i + 1 ii ( + 1) + ( i+ 1)( i+ ) + + ( i) + i= i< () According to (1) (), therefore, we can deduce that i+ 1 i = i( i+ 1) ( i+ 1)( i+ ) ( 1) (3) and according to the additive recirocal + = 1 i, {1,, n } (4) i i i The indicates the ratio of the reference intensity of alternative x i to that of x If i = 1/ imlies there is no difference between x i and x ( xi ~ x ), i > 1/ imlies xi is referred to x ( xi > x ), i = 1 indicates that x i is absolutely referred to x The stes are described in the following: 1 Comute the set of reference values B as B= { i, i< i { 1, 3,, n 1n}} (5) Find P P= { 1, 3,, n 1n} B (6) {1 1,1 3,,1 n 1n} B 3 The consistent fuzzy reference relation P is obtained as P = f( P) such that f :[ a,1 + a] [0,1] x + a f( x) = (7) 1 + a If there is a set of alternatives X = { x1,, x n }, which is associated with a recirocal multilicative reference relation A= ( a i ), and ai [1/ 9,9], then we can use equation (8) to find the corresonding recirocal additive fuzzy reference relation P= ( i ), and i [0,1] = ga ( ) = 1/ (1+ log a) (8) i i 9 i Thus, we rofessed that equation (8) is a transformation function g, and using the function g a recirocal multilicative reference relation matrix can be transformed into a kind of reference relation After the Fuzzy PreRa method was roosed, Wang and Chen [14] adated it with the linguistic concet, which uses variables as fuzzy linguistic assessments, and roosed it as the fuzzy linguistic reference relations method 3 Methodology 31 Review of MSA selection with AHP by Lai et al [5] The evaluation and selection of a MAS are imortant arts of multimedia develoment roects In their aer, Software selection: a case study of the alication of the analytical hierarchical rocess to the selection of a multimedia authoring system, Lai et al [5] alied AHP method in software selection Decision makers udge the imortance of one alternative over another can be made subectively and converted to a numerical value using a scale of 1-9 where 1 denotes equal imortance and 9 denotes the highest degree of favoritism There are six imortant factors used to measures the erformance of MSA roduct: develoment interfaces (F1); grahic suort (F); multi-media data suort (F3); data file suort (F4); cost effectiveness (F5) and vendor suort (F6) The reference relation matrix for airwise comarison of criteria is shown in Table 1 (which reresents the evaluation of member 1 of the grou) [5] Table 1 Preference relation matrix for airwise comarison of criteria (AHP) F1 1 1/3 1/4 1/3 5 7 F 3 1 1/3 1/4 5 6 F F / F5 1/5 1/5 1/7 1/6 1 5 F6 1/7 1/6 1/8 1/8 1/5 1 After obtaining the airwise comarisons, a normalized matrix was develoed in Table by

4 Proceedings of the 007 WSEAS International Conference on Comuter Engineering and Alications, Gold Coast, Australia, January 17-19, [5] The analyzed outcome obtained by Fuzzy PreRa almost coincides with that roduced by the AHP method, shown in Table 6 Notably, the ratio of the airwise comarison times of the riority weight for the six influential factors between Fuzzy PreRa and AHP is 5:15 Table 6 Comaring AHP and Fuzzy PreRa comute result AHP ranking Fuzzy PreRa ranking F F F F F F Conclusion Although the AHP method has been widely alied in many research domains, it still has some roblems that need to be solved Therefore, owing to the fact that the AHP method must erform very comlicated airwise comarison amongst elements (attributes or alternatives), and since it is difficult to obtain a convincing consistency index with an increasing number of attributes or alternatives Then, Herrera-Viedma et al [3] develoed the fuzzy reference relation (Fuzzy PreRa) method to imrove above roblem If we have n attributes, using the AHP method we need to count the airwise comarison times of nn ( 1)/ to be able to obtain a result However, using the fuzzy PreRa (fuzzy reference relation) method we only need to count the airwise comarison times of n 1 In this case, there are six criteria, using AHP we need to comare the criteria 15 times, but using fuzzy PreRa we only need to comare them 5 times Regarding the airwise comaring times, fuzzy PreRa requires less comarisons than AHP by 10 times Fuzzy PreRa is clearly faster to execute and more efficient than AHP Alying Fuzzy PreRa method, it is ossible to assure better consistency of the fuzzy reference relations rovided by the decision makers, and in such a way as to avoid the inconsistent solutions in the decision making rocesses References: [1] Al-Harbi, Kamal M Al-Subhi, Alication of the AHP in roect management, International Journal of Proect Management, Vol19, 001, 19-7 [] Beynon, M, DS/AHP method: A mathematical analysis, including an understanding of uncertainty, Euroean Journal of Oerational Research, Vol140, No1, 00, [3] Herrera-Viedma, E, Herrera, F, Chiclana, F and Luque, M, Some issues on consistency of fuzzy reference relations, Euroean Journal of Oerational Research, Vol154, No1, 004, [4] Laarhoven, PJM and Pedrycz, W, A fuzzy extension of Saaty's riority theory, Fuzzy Sets and Systems, Vol11, No3, 1983, 9-41 [5] Lai, Vincent S, Trueblood, Robert P and Wong, Bo K, Software selection: a case study of the alication of the analytical hierarchical rocess to the selection of a multimedia authoring system, Information and Management, Vol 36, No4, 1999, 1-3 [6] Liovetsky, S and Tishler, A, Interval estimation of riorities in the AHP, Euroean Journal of Oerational Research, Vol114, No1, 1999, [7] Ra, JW, Chainwise aired comarisons, Decision Sciences, Vol30, No, 1999, [8] Saaty, TL, Decision Making for Leader: The Analytic Hierarchy Process for Decisions in a Comlex World, RWS Publications, Pittsburgh, PA, 1988 [9] Saaty, TL, The Analytic Hierarchy Process, McGraw-Hill, New York, 1980 [10] Schoner, B and Wedley, WC, Ambiguous criteria weights in AHP: Consequences and solutions, Decision Sciences, Vol0, No3, 1989, [11] Skibniewski, MJ and Chao, L, Evaluation of advanced construction technology with AHP method, Journal of Construction Engineering and Management, Vol118, No3, 199, [1] Tsai, Ming-Chih and Su, Chin-Hui, Political risk assessment of five East Asian orts the viewoints of global carriers, Marine Policy, Vol9, No4, 005, [13] Tung, SL and Tang, SL, A comarison of the Saaty s AHP and modified AHP for right and left eigenvector inconsistency, Euroean Journal of Oerational Research, Vol106, No1, 1998, [14] Wang, TC and Chen, YH, A new method on decision-making using fuzzy linguistic assessment variables and fuzzy reference relations, The 9th World Multi-Conference on Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics
