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 ...

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 ...

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

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.

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 ...

Selection of Inspection Intervals Based on Multi-attribute Utility Theory
2013In the context of complex equipment, inspection has an important role to play in maintaining operations at a suitable performance. In fact, for this kind of system, failures are not immediate. Therefore, the concept of delay time is very useful as a two-step failure process, as a basis for constructing inspection models.

Multi-attribute utility theory for measuring safety
European Journal of Operational Research, 1982Abstract The advent of new technology, much of which is complex and dangerous, has produced the need for defensible and sound methods for measuring safety and for determining whether a given level of safety is appropriate. This is particularly true in the nuclear industry where most of the opposition to nuclear power is concerned with the safety of ...

INTEGRATING VISUALIZATION AND MULTI-ATTRIBUTE UTILITY THEORY FOR ONLINE PRODUCT SELECTION
International Journal of Information Technology & Decision Making, 2007Effectively selling products online is a challenging task. Today's product domains often contain a dizzying variety of brands and models with highly complex sets of characteristics. This paper addresses the problem of supporting product search and selection in domains containing large numbers of alternatives with complex sets of features.

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.

Multi-Attribute Utility Theory
2012Multi-attribute utility theory is an extension of Utility theory developed to help decision-makers assign utility values, taking into consideration the decision-maker’s preferences, to outcomes by evaluating these in terms of multiple attributes and combining these individual assignments to obtain overall utility measures.
