TLDR
In this paper, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is introduced as a method of measurement with ratio scales and illustrated with two examples, and the axioms and some of the central theoretical underpinnings of the theory are discussed.About:

Uncertainty and sensitivity analysis techniques as tools for the quality assessment of composite indicators
TL;DR: In this paper, uncertainty analysis and sensitivity analysis are used to gain useful insights during the process of building composite indicators, including a contribution to the indicators' definition of quality and an assessment of the reliability of countries' rankings.

The Analytic Hierarchy Process
Thomas L. Saaty,Kevin P. Kearns +1 more
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.

Axiomatic foundation of the analytic hierarchy process
TL;DR: In this article, an axiomatic treatment of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is presented, which is a special case of axioms for priority setting in systems with feedback which allow for a wide class of dependencies.

Procedures for Synthesizing Ratio Judgements
J. Aczel,Thomas L. Saaty +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the requirements for functions synthesizing judgements (quantities or their ratios), in particular separability, associativity or bisymmetry, cancellativity, consensus, reciprocal or homogeneity properties are investigated and all functions satisfying them are determined.
