Decision Analysis Utilizing Multi-Attribute Utility Theory in Engineering Evaluations
IEEE Transactions on Power Apparatus and Systems / Technical Operations Committee, 1978This paper presents the application of multi-attribute utility theory in a decision analysis to incorporate multiple conflicting objectives into engineering evaluations. The paper is tutorial in nature and demonstrates the application of this theory through an example problem that involves the evaluation of streetlight expansion options in a regulated ...

Developing a reconfigurability index using multi-attribute utility theory
International Journal of Production Research, 2011Reconfigurable manufacturing systems (RMSs) have been acknowledged as a promising means of providing manufacturing companies with the required production capacities and capabilities. This is accomplished through reconfiguring the system elements over the time for a diverse set of individualised products often required in small quantities and with short

A multi-attribute utility theory approach to ordering policy for perishable items
International Journal of Production Economics, 2020Most retailers aim at operating with low cost and low stock-out probability. In this paper, we consider a retailer who manages the inventory of a perishable product using a continuous review (Q,r) policy with these two performance measures. We rely on the multi-attribute utility theory to combine these two measures into a single weighted utility ...

Transportation corridor decision-making with multi-attribute utility theory
International Journal of Management and Decision Making, 2006This paper provides a description of how decisions concerning transportation programmes and projects can be made in the context of sustainable transportation. It provides information on identifying appropriate performance measures for sustainable transportation and then quantifying these measures with a traffic simulation model (CORSIM) as well as ...

Application of multi attribute utility theory in multiple releases of software
International Journal of System Assurance Engineering and Management, 2014One of the important applications of software reliability models is the determination of software release time. Most of the existing studies on this topic use models based on non homogeneous Poisson process with a bounded mean value function. Multi up gradation based software reliability growth model is developed for successive release modelling and ...

Combination of a Cognitive Theory with the Multi-attribute Utility Theory
2003This paper presents how a novel combination of a cognitive theory with the Multi-Attribute Utility Theory (MAUT) can be incorporated in a Graphical User Interface (GUI) in order to provide adaptive and intelligent help to users. The GUI is called I-Mailer and is meant to help users achieve their goals and plans during their interaction with an e ...

Multi attribute utility theory for irrigation system evaluation
Water Resources Management, 2006Multi Attribute Utility Theory (MAUT) is employed to rank the irrigation subsystems of Mahi Bajaj Sagar Project, Rajasthan, India. Seven performance evaluation criteria, namely, land development works, timely supply of inputs, conjunctive use of water resources, participation of farmers, economic impact, crop productivity and environmental conservation

Measuring nursing practice models using multi-attribute utility theory
Research in Nursing & Health, 2000Nursing Practice Models (NPMs) represent the structural and contextual features that exist within any group practice of nursing. Currently, measurement of NPMs relies on costly and nonreproducible global judgments by experts. Quantitative measurement techniques are needed to provide a useful evaluation of nursing practice.

Schizophrenia: Multi-Attribute Utility Theory Approach to Selection of Atypical Antipsychotics
Annals of Pharmacotherapy, 2007Background: Current guidelines/algorithms recommend atypical antipsychotics as first-line agents for the treatment of schizophrenia. Because there are extensive healthcare costs associated with the treatment of schizophrenia, many institutions and health systems are faced with making restrictive formulary ...

Applications of Multi-Attribute Utility Theory: Comments
1977We would like to consider the review paper by Patrick Humphreys in the context of two other review papers on the same subject, the papers by Huber (1974) and by von Winterfeldt and Fischer (1975), and we intend to show that substantial progress in the applicability of multiattribute utility theory is represented by this sequence of papers.
