Abstract (english)

One of the most advanced and complex multi- criteria decision-making methods is the analytic network process (ANP). This method supports modelling dependencies and feedback between elements in the network. For this reason, the ANP is one of the most appropriate methods for making decisions in fields that are characterised by existing dependencies of higher-level elements on lower level elements. In addition to reviewing the ANP, this paper also studies some possible method upgrades that might... More decrease the complexity of the original ANP. We explore this by structuring the problem as a weighted graph and using the concept of compatibility between interdependent matrices in the ANP. Less
