Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify the radio frequency identification (RFID) strategic value attributes (RFIDSVAs) mechanism selections preferences and also integration of RFID tags with technology coordination tools (IRTWTCTs) alternatives ranking performance decisions in supply chain management (SCM). RFID-enabled techno-economic feasibility decisions are enhancing the SC visibility in apparel supply chains (ASCs). The RFIDSVAs mechanism selections have performed significant agility to strategic competitive advantages, namely, inventory visibility, multi-tags ownership transfer within trusted third party, etc. Design/methodology/approach Fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (FAHP) and FAHP-fuzzy Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (FTOPSIS) approaches have been used to evaluate the quantitative assessment of RFIDSVA mechanisms selection decision based on weight priority orders and IRTWTCTs alternatives selection in ASC networks. The comparison of FAHP and FAHP-FTOPSIS approaches to evaluate the integrated framework develop in RFIDSVAs mechanisms and IRTWTCTs alternatives selection decisions in Indian multi-tier ASC networks. Findings The result found that the FAHP-FTOPSIS approaches have used to prioritizing the RFIDSVA mechanism selection weights and also identify the IRTWTCTs alternatives ranking preferences order in apparel SCM. The comparison between the FAHP and FAHP-FTOPSIS approach to quantitative assessments from RFIDSVA mechanisms and IRTWTCTs alternatives selection decisions, which enable them SC agility potential across multi-tier visibility in ASC networks. ASC stakeholders can be benefited by techno-economic feasibility decisions, RFID-enabled shop floor activities, multi-tags ownerships transfer in SCs and knowledge-based cryptography tags/items separation in SCs. Research limitations/implications The research work has considered only five RFIDSVA mechanisms and also three integration of RFIDTWTCTs alternatives in multi-tier ASC. The strategic competitive advantages are achieved by RFID-enabled break-even tags price decisions and also techno-economic feasibility decision by contractual design multi-tier SC stakeholder’s involvements. Practical implications The pilot project study explores that the quantitative assessment decision has based on RFID-enable techno-economic feasibility in ASCs. Stakeholders can be benefited by inventory control of the financial losses, reducing the inventory inaccuracies and multi-tags ownership transfer within trusted third-party traceability in ASC networks. Originality/value This study explores the RFID-enabled apparel SC process and activities visibility (natural fibre’s fibre producer, fibre dyeing producer, yarn spinning producer, knitting and finishing producer).

“…Lofti Zadeh introduced the idea of using fuzzy logic for systems control in 1972 (Klir & Yuan, 1995). This innovative way of considering possibilistic rather than probabilistic system performance outcomes improved the applicability of systems control methodology and design to practical “real-world” problems (Lewis, 1997).…”

There is growing evidence that contact surfaces within healthcare settings can serve as reservoirs for pathogen colonization and spread infectious bacteria to humans. This article aims to demonstrate the use of a Prevention through Design Environment Material Integrative Control (PtD-EMIC) instrument to predict the infection prevention resilience potential of materials commonly used for healthcare contact surfaces. PtD-EMIC is based on fuzzy logic and Adaptive Neural Fuzzy Inference System architecture. Its objective is to serve as a computational design tool that guides the selection and specification of interior materials that may moderate the spread of pathogens in healthcare environments. This objective is accomplished through an applied systems requirement simulation framework that can help guide interior material choice and design for healthcare spaces. The motivation for developing this instrument is to provide a vehicle that can expand healthcare design industry capabilities and interior environment analysis research by using computational approaches to inform interior material selection and design decisions that support healthcare environments’ infection control strategies. The selection and sourcing of embedded data related to relevant and high-use acute care treatment area finishes, the premise of instrument use, precedent research basis, and system architecture, as well as tool validation and demonstration of use, are all discussed. The text explains how using this instrument can facilitate categorization and leveraging interior material performance outcome data for informing safety-critical healthcare design.

“…Step 2: Establishing triangular fuzzy numbers: calculate the evaluation value of the triangular fuzzy numbers of each candidate factor by experts to find the importance of the triangular fuzzy number of the candidate factor. In this study, the geometric mean proposed by Klir and Yuan (1995) is used as a method to calculate the consensus of group decision-making. The geometric mean represents the most likely value of this factor.…”

Quality function deployment (QFD) is a systematic approach to transform customer requirements (CRs) into product engineering characteristics (ECs). Traditional QFD relies on market research or customer questionnaires to collect a series of ambiguous and uncertain CRs. As a result, evaluating the weighting of CRs and determining the design matrix between CRs and ECs have become the focus and difficulty of QFD. This paper proposes the grey system theory in artificial intelligence technology combined with QFD to develop grey-QFD to solve the issues mentioned before. First, collect the average evaluation values between the aesthetic images and customer satisfaction of representative products. The grey prediction GM (1, N) model is used to obtain the weight of aesthetic needs relative to customer satisfaction and import it into the left QFD. Second, the domain experts decomposed the product form into a morphological analysis table, and fuzzy Delphi screened key ECs and imported them into the ceiling of QFD. Finally, grey relationship analysis established the aesthetic product design matrix between CRs and ECs, and calculated and ranked the final weights of each ECs by using grey relationship degree. The research uses the security camera in the smart home as an experimental object. After operating the proposed grey-QFD, the aesthetic quality of the target product (lively, intelligent, friendly, personalized, and fashionable) and the optimization of the corresponding product ECs are obtained. The result provides a theoretical reference for designers and significantly improves customer aesthetic satisfaction.
