Research on Selection Method of the Optimum Alternative Using Improved AHP Method in NSDL Environment
Abstract: In this paper, we have considered the development of a decision-making tool to optimize the design of the ship-roll fin stabilizer using improved analytical hierarchy process (AHP) in a network-oriented system description language (NSDL) environment developed by combining the advantages of Petri nets and object-oriented programming languages. First, we have considered the network-oriented system description language NSDL, a new software development tool that combines the advantages of Petri nets and …
