Papers
This section presents a collection of AHP/ANP papers. Whether you are a student, academic and/or professional in the field of decision making, you can help us expand this collection by sharing your papers on decision making with the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the Analytic Network Process (ANP).

Criteria for Evaluating Group Decision-Making Methods. In: Decision Making with the Analytic Network Process
Kirti PeniwatiJournal: International Series in Operations Research & Management ScienceThis paper has brought many criteria and many methods under one umbrella. We believe that our schematization is a good start and may eventually be improved upon in subsequent revisions and extensions of the criteria used and in debating the importance of these criteria and the accuracy with which...
Read MoreRanking countries according to economic, social and political indicators
Kirti Peniwati, T HsiaoJournal: Mathematical ModellingDespite its inadequacies, the GNP is still the best known and most widely used economic indicator to measure development. A number of authors have considered otherrelevant indicators, such as life expectancy, infant mortality, literacy and so on, as measures of development. In this paper we offer...
Read MoreMisuse of the Axiom of Independence in the Analytic Hierarchy process
Kirti Peniwati, David HauserJournal: The 3rd International Symposium on the Analytic Hierarchy ProcessSome authors have proposed that the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) axiom of independence be relaxed to accommodate observations drawn from: a) examples of pairwise comparisons of alternatives in clusters in single criterion AHP problems, and b) examples of problems in which the criteria have th...
Read MoreMisuses of Clustering and Absolute Scales of Measurement in the Analytic Hierarchy process
Kirti PeniwatiJournal: The 3rd International Symposium on the Analytic Hierarchy ProcessThe grouping of elements, called clustering, is a fundamental operation in the Analytic Hierarchy Process. What elements are chosen and how they are clustered and located in a hierarchy have a profound effect on the outcome and the conclusions derived from the outcome. A valid AHP hierarchy must ...
Read MoreThe Analytic Hierarchy Process: The Possibility Theorem for Group Decision making
Kirti PeniwatiJournal: Proceedings of the 4th International Symposium on The Analytic Hierarchy ProcessArrow's Impossibility Theorem says that it is generally impossible to derive arational group choice from ordinal comparisons made by the individual members. This paper demonstrates that, at appropriate consistency levels, and with the use of judgments on a cardinal scale, the Analytic Hierarc...
Read MoreOn the Proper Interpretation and Impact of the AHP Axiom of Independence in Single-Criterion and Multiple-Criteria Problems
David Hauser, Kirti PeniwatiJournal: Multi-criteria decision analysisSome authors have proposed that the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) axiom of independence be relaxed to accommodate observations drawn from (a) examples of pairwise comparisons of alternatives in clusters in single-criterion AHP problems and (b) examples of problems in which the criteria have th...
Read MoreAggregating Individual Judgments and Prioriies with the Analytic Hierarchy Process
Ernest Forman, Kirti PeniwatiJournal: European Journal of Operational ResearchThe Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is often used in group settings where group members either engage in discussion to achieve a consensus or express their own preferences. Individual judgments can be aggregated in different ways. Two of the methods that have been found to be most useful are the...
Read MoreClarifying the Business Strategy of the Indonesian Pawning State Company: Combining AHP and Balanced Scorecard
Kirti Peniwati, Nani KoesprianiJournal: Proceedings of the fifth International Symposium on The Analytic Hierarchy ProcessThe most source of failure in implementing business strategy of company is because of the inability to translate business strategy to strategic actions. Translating strategic objectives into strategic actions is very important since it will determine the strategy implementation success. Balance S...
Read MoreAn Unifying Theory for Social Choice and Synergistic Group Decision Making
Kirti PeniwatiJournal: Proceedings of the fifth International Symposium on The Analytic Hierarchy ProcessThe process of aggregating individual judgments in a population at large and in a synergistic group (team) is fundamentally different. Arrow's Impossibility Theorem shows that it is generally impossible to derive a rational group choice from individual ordinal preferences with more than two a...
Read MoreHR Development Startegy through Competency Profile Analysis
Kumala I. Suryo, Kirti PeniwatiJournal: Proceedings of the fifth International Symposium on The Analytic Hierarchy ProcessA qualified staff must acquire a set of skill, of which both the individual staff and the organization is responsible for its development. The AMP methodology is used to identify the required skill, and their relative priority, for faculty members of PPM Institute of Management. The model is used...
Read MoreAn Empirical Comparison of Two Choice Aggregation Methods in the Analytic Hierarchy process
Sibs von Solms, Kirti PeniwatiJournal: The 6th International Symposium on the Analytic Hierarchy Processhis paper builds on the theoretical discussion presented in an earlier paper (this issue) on the importance of and several problems related to participative group decision-making. A variation of how the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) can be applied to address the problems and aid participative ...

Kirti PeniwatiJournal: Mathematical and Computer ModellingThis paper brings many criteria and many methods under one umbrella and compares them. The schematization given here is a good start and may eventually be improved upon in subsequent revisions by extending the criteria used and by further debating the importance of these criteria and their pertin...
Read MoreMulti-Decisions Rating Model: Establishing rescue policies for Regional Drinking Water Companies (PDAM) in Indonesia
Kirti Peniwati, Werner BrennerJournal: European Journal of Operational ResearchFresh water is abundant in Indonesia, but only about 20% out of more than 200 million of its population have access to clean water supplied by 306 Regional Drinking Water Companies (PDAMs) around the country. The poor performance of most PDAMs is due to high level of debt, lack of investment, and...
