An Algorithm for the Analytic Network Process (ANP) Structure Design

Journal of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, 2011
ABSTRACTThe present paper delineates a three‐step algorithm for the analytic network process (ANP) structure design. When defining the decision goal and the alternative set, one can use the three‐step algorithm proposed in this paper, first, to specify the decision criteria, and second, to outline the structure of the ANP problem.
