Abstract:
Analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is a structured technique for organizing and analyzing complex decision. This process is used around the world in a wide variety of decision situation, in fields such as government, business, industry, healthcare, and education. In this method, decision problem first is decomposed into a hierarchy of more easily comprehended sub-problems, each of which can be analyzed independently. Once the hierarchy is built, the decision makers systematically evaluate its various elements by comparing them to one another two at a time, with respect to their impact on an element above them in the hierarchy. In this thesis we will study the hierarchy process and also study a comparison matrix. In addition, we will propose eigenvalue method in AHP and a method based on game theory in connection with AHP
