Decision making is a comprehensive process comprising of uncertainties that shall be handled with the right selection of decision making approaches. Selection of the optimal alternatives and the best criteria is the expected outcome of any decision making strategy. This paper proposes a decision making model based on the plithogenic pythagorean best –worst method which is an extension of the multi-valued neutrosophic approach of BWM. The efficiency of the developed model is determined with the example pertaining to the optimal selection of the teaching methods based on the attribute values or the sub criteria and it is also compared with the neutrosophic approach. In the proposed model plithogenic and pythagorean neutrosophic sets are used for representing the expert’s opinion.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is used in the Supply chain management (SCM) systems to respond to the globalization of complex and dynamic markets and competitiveness in various supply chain scopes. Despite the current buzz about IoT and its role in the supply chain, there is not enough empirical data or extensive expertise to guide its implementation. Therefore, this paper addresses the ambiguity of assessing the performance of the IoT based supply chain by integrating plithogenic set with both Best-Worst (BWM) and Vlse Kriterijumska Optimizacija Kompromisno Resenje (VIKOR) methods in a decision-making framework tailored for this field. The framework is based on 23 criteria that measure different aspects of the performance. The performance of the framework is assessed according to the plithogenic set theory and to the neutrosophic set theory using a case study of comparing the performance of IoT implantation with the SC of five e-commerce companies using three experts. The case study shows that the proposed framework has more consideration of the contradiction degree of each criteria to improve the accuracy of the evaluation results.

This book presents a comprehensive overview of the principles and practices of decision-making. It highlights the interface between engineering/technology and the organizational, administrative, and planning abilities of decision-making. The chapters address decision-making using real-world case studies. They also discuss decision-making theory as well as relevant analysis techniques. The book blends computational techniques, dynamic analysis, probabilistic methods, and mathematical optimization techniques to support the analysis of multi-criteria decision-making problems with defined constraints and requirements.

Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) has been one of the fastest growing problem areas in many disciplines. The central problem is how to evaluate a set of alternatives in terms of a number of criteria. Although this problem is very relevant in practice, there are few methods available and their quality is hard to determine. Thus, the question `Which is the best method for a given problem?' has become one of the most important and challenging ones. This is exactly what this book has as its focus and why it is important. The author extensively compares, both theoretically and empirically, real-life MCDM issues and makes the reader aware of quite a number of surprising `abnormalities' with some of these methods. What makes this book so valuable and different is that even though the analyses are rigorous, the results can be understood even by the non-specialist. Audience: Researchers, practitioners, and students; it can be used as a textbook for senior undergraduate or graduate courses in business and engineering.

We introduce for the first time the concept of plithogeny in philosophy and, as a derivative, the concepts of plithogenic set / logic / probability / statistics in mathematics and engineering – and the degrees of contradiction (dissimilarity) between the attributes’ values that contribute to a more accurate construction of plithogenic aggregation operators and to the plithogenic relationship of inclusion (partial ordering).

Personnel selection is a critical obstacle that influences the success of the enterprise. The complexity of personnel selection is to determine effciently the proper applicantion to fulffll enterprise requirements. The decision makers do their best to match enterprise requirements with the most suitable applicant. Unfortunately, the numerous criterions, alternatives, and goals make the process of choosing among several applicants is very complex and confusing to decision making. The environment of decision making is a multi-criteria decision making surrounded by inconsistency and uncertainty. This paper contributes to support personnel selection process by integrating neutrosophic analytical hierarchy process (AHP) with the technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS) to illustrate an ideal solution amongst different alternatives. A case study on smart village Cairo Egypt is developed based on decision maker's judgments recommendations. The proposed study applies neutrosophic AHP and TOPSIS to enhance the traditional methods of personnel selection to achieve the ideal solutions. By reaching the ideal solutions, the smart village will enhance the resource management for attaining the goals to be a successful enterprise. The proposed method demonstrates a great impact on the personnel selection process rather than the traditional decision-making methods.
