Landfill site selection using multi criteria decision making: Influential factors for comparing locations.

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of landfill site selection methods, with an emphasis on multi criteria decision making (multiple criteria decision analysis) has been presented and it is indicated that the most frequently used methods are weighted linear combination (WLC), ordered weighted averaging (OWA), analytic hierarchy process (AHP), fuzzy analytic hierarchyprocess (F-AHP, TODIM), fuzzy TODIM, analytic network process (ANP), fuzzy-analytic network process and grey systems theory.

Biogas as a sustainable energy source in China: Regional development strategy application and decision making

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the development status of biogas application in China, from villages to large cities, to assess the major characteristics of BiOGAS application, and provide decision support for development strategies for regional distribution plans and the scale of Biogas system construction, which can also aid further research on balancing energy supply and demand, energy policy formation, and the regional eco-environment development.

The Analytic Hierarchy Process

TL;DR: Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) as mentioned in this paper is a systematic procedure for representing the elements of any problem hierarchically, which organizes the basic rationality by breaking down a problem into its smaller constituent parts and then guides decision makers through a series of pairwise comparison judgments to express the relative strength or intensity of impact of the elements in the hierarchy.

A fuzzy extension of Saaty's priority theory

TL;DR: A fuzzy version of Saaty's pairwise comparison method (1980) extended by de Graan and Lootsma (1981), adapted in such a way, that decision-makers are asked to express their opinions in fuzzy numbers with triangular membership functions.
