Abstract-Nowadays supply chain management is one of the most important affairs that applying its new approaches is essential among competitive industries and markets. For any company, the most significant decision is to purchase goods, materials and services from suppliers. Now the better suppliers perform the better company do. So the role of suppliers is critical in the competitive markets. Supplier selection is the first step of the supply chain management. Supplier selection is a problem for any organization because of its role on reducing cost in the supply chain management. It is little complex because of existing various criteria and it is the multi criteria problem and there are experts in any company to make decision in accordance with multiple criteria. This paper proposed an integrated method using Analytic Network Process (ANP) and Fuzzy-Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to the Ideal Solution (FTOPSIS) .this paper used ANP to calculate the weights of each criteria of the model and for the sake of complexity in evaluation to prepare exact numerical values for the criteria is difficult, fuzzy TOPSIS is used in this paper to select the best supplier.

“…This step is performed through pairwise comparisons by asking "How much importance does a criterion have compared to another criterion with respect to our interests or preferences?" the relative value of importance can be provided applying a scale of 1-9 to show equal importance (1) to extreme importance (9) [19].…”

“…ANP is the general form of the analytic hierarchy process (AHP), which has been used in multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) in order to consider nonhierarchical structures. MCDM has been applied to numerous disciplines (Huang et al, 2005). The ANP introduced by Saaty, is a generalization of the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) (Saaty, 1996).…”

The purpose of this study is to develop a fuzzy Analytic Network Process (ANP) model that has the ability to evaluate employee performance in different strategies. A team of experts in the field of strategic human resource management and senior management of an organization engaged in steel production were involved in the study. The data collection tool was a questionnaire that was designed based on the criteria of organization's performance appraisal system. The results showed that in cost leadership strategy, compliance of work hierarchy, quantity of work and the ability to make important decisions constituted the highest coefficients, while in the focus strategy, participate in group work, power of supervision and administration and decision making ability had the highest importance. In differentiation strategy, innovation and creativity, quality and offering constructive suggestions received higher ratings than other criteria. Finally, the developed model was used to evaluate the performance of a sample employee.

Abstract:The demands for alternative energy resources have been increasing exponentially in the 21st century due to continuous industrial development, depletion of fossil fuels and emerging environmental consciousness. Renewable energy sources, including wind energy, hydropower energy, geothermal energy, solar energy, biomass energy and ocean power, have received increasing attention as alternative means of meeting global energy demands. After Japan's Fukushima nuclear plant disaster in March 2011, more and more countries are having doubt about the safety of nuclear plants. As a result, safe and renewable energy sources are attracting even more attention these days. Wind energy production, with its relatively safer and positive environmental characteristics, has evolved in the past few decades from a marginal activity into a multi-billion dollar industry. In this research, a comprehensive evaluation model is constructed to select a suitable location for developing a wind farm. The model incorporates interpretive structural modeling (ISM), benefits, opportunities, costs and risks (BOCR) and fuzzy analytic network process (FANP). Experts in the field are invited to contribute their expertise in evaluating the importance of the factors and various aspects of the wind farm evaluation OPEN ACCESSEnergies 2011, 4 2003 problem, and the most suitable wind farm can finally be generated from the model. A case study is carried out in Taiwan in evaluating the expected performance of several potential wind farms, and a recommendation is provided for selecting the most appropriate wind farm for construction.
