The Method of Finding A Best Alternative to Multiple Attribute Decision Making Problems by Grey System Theory using Fuzzy Concept

Issue Abstract

Abstract
This is one of the best ways to find an alternative in the situation of multiple attribute decision-making. This paper presents how to find a way the required alternative using fuzzy sets and a Grey system with interval numbers.
Keywords: Grey system theory, multiple attribute decision making, Fuzzy sets, AHP, TOPSIS.
