“…The PIV, ROV and COPRAS methods, which offer a simple calculation procedure, are preferred because they have never been used in a similar problem. In the fourth stage, the rankings obtained by the PIV, ROV, COPRAS methods were compared with the MARCOS method in to compare them with the study of Torkayesh & Torkayesh (2021). The model used in this study was chosen because it has not been tested for ICT evaluation before.…”

“…It was proven that the proposed model was suitable for the evaluation of intellectual capital for ICT. Torkayesh and Torkayesh (2021) evaluated the development of ICT in G7 countries using integrated MCDM approach. Subjective the Level Based Weight Assessment (LBWA) method was preferred to find the criteria weights, Measurement Alternatives and Ranking according to Compromise Solution (MARCOS) method was preferred to rank the alternatives.…”

“…In this direction, Entropy based Proximity Indexed Value (PIV), Range of Value (ROV), and COmplex PRoportional ASsessment (COPRAS) methods were used to evaluate the ICT development of G7 countries. Contrary to the study of Torkayesh & Torkayesh (2021), in this study, objective methods were chosen for weighting the criteria to fill the gap in the literature. A five-stage evaluation process was followed.…”

Bilgi ve iletişim teknolojileri (BİT), her türlü görsel, işitsel basılı ve yazılı araçlar aracılığıyla bilgiye ulaşılmasını, bilginin işlenmesini sağlamaktadır. Bu çalışmada, Çok Kriterli Karar Verme (ÇKKV) yöntemleri kullanılarak G7 ülkelerinin BİT gelişiminin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu doğrultuda, Entropy yöntemi kriterlerin ağırlıklarını belirlemek amacıyla kullanılmış, Yakınlık Endeksli Değer (PIV), Değer Aralığı (ROV), ve Karmaşık Oransal Değerlendirme (COPRAS) yöntemleri ise alternatifleri sıralamak için kullanılmıştır. Bu çalışmanın son aşamasında, Entropy temelli PIV, ROV, COPRAS yöntemleri ile elde edilen sıralamalar ile Seviye temelli ağırlık değerlendirme (LBWA) temelli Uzlaşma Çözümüne Göre Alternatiflerin Ölçülmesi ve Sıralanması (MARCOS) yöntemi ile elde edilen sonuçlar kullanılarak karşılaştırmalı bir analiz gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma sonunda, objektif ve subjektif yöntemlerle elde edilen kriter ağırlıklarının sıralama sonuçları üzerinde farklı etkiye neden olduğu saptanmıştır.

“…Next, the elasticity coefficient is determined according to the number of criteria in different levels, and the influence function and weight of each icriterion are determined combined with the elasticity coefficient. The calculation of this method is relatively simple and it can ensure the consistency of the results, but the process of criteria stratification and criteria importance ranking within the layer is subjective, and the determination of the elastic coefficient lacks sufficient mathematical basis [45,46].…”

A Hybrid Novel Fuzzy MCDM Method for Comprehensive Performance Evaluation of Pumped Storage Power Station in China

2021

Considering the goals of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality, along with their related policies, pumped storage power stations are set to develop quickly in China. The comprehensive performance of pumped storage power stations must urgently be evaluated, which can help investors in decision making and provide a reference for policymakers. In this paper, a hybrid novel fuzzy multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) method combining the fuzzy best worst method (BWM) and fuzzy TOPSIS was proposed for the comprehensive performance evaluation of pumped storage power stations in China. The fuzzy BWM was utilized to determine the criteria weights describing the comprehensive performance of pumped storage power stations, while the fuzzy TOPSIS was used to rank the comprehensive performance of pumped storage power stations. The index system for the comprehensive performance evaluation of pumped storage power stations in China incorporated economic, social, and environmental aspects. The comprehensive performance of four pumped storage power stations in China was empirically evaluated using the proposed hybrid novel fuzzy MCDM method, and the results indicate that pumped storage power station PSPS2 exhibited the best comprehensive performance, followed by pumped storage power stations PSPS1 and PSPS4, whereas pumped storage power station PSPS3 had the worst comprehensive performance. A sensitivity analysis and comparative analysis were also conducted. The results indicate that the proposed hybrid novel fuzzy MCDM method, combining the fuzzy BWM and fuzzy TOPSIS for comprehensive performance evaluation of pumped storage power stations, is robust and effective.

“…The concept of the digital divide today comes from a report by one of the United States government agencies in the field of telecommunications and information, named the National Telecommunication and Information Administration (NTIA) in 2010. The report classifies American citizens into two major technological groups, namely people who have access to and do not have access to information and communication technology (ICT) services, both government and private services (Kearns & Whitley, 2020;Torkayesh & Torkayesh, 2021) The digital divide is not only related to infrastructure access. The digital divide is also related to the ideological, political, economic, social, cultural, geographical, and demographic gaps.…”

The digital divide is one of the problems faced by the government since the COVID-19 pandemic occurred. All face-to-face activities in all development sectors are transferred online. The unpreparedness of communication technology infrastructure in Indonesia is one of the obstacles to online learning activities that require a stable internet connection, even in urban areas that already have communication infrastructure with 5G networks. However, it turns out that the problem is not only with infrastructure, what is more important than that is the opportunity and ability of the community to use communication technology. In this study, researchers limit research to only discussing the challenges of the digital divide in the online learning process during the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia with research locations in three districts in West Java in 2020-2021. This research uses a qualitative approach, an exploratory paradigm, in a case study perspective. The data collection process was carried out under natural conditions in the form of observation, in-depth interviews and documentation studies. This study concludes that collaboration between government officials and the community has a positive impact on people's opportunities to carry out online learning processes during the COVID-19 pandemic. The challenges of the digital divide faced during the digital learning process can be partially overcome by collaboration between the government, the community and the private sector, although the approach taken is different at each research location.
