• TITLE: Using Multi-Attribute Decision Methods in Mathematical Modeling to Produce an Order of Merit List of High Valued Terrorists

  AUTHORS: William P. Fox

  KEYWORDS: Ranking Terrorists, TOPSIS, AHP, Criteria Weights, Pairwise Comparisons, Sensitivity Analysis

  JOURNAL NAME: American Journal of Operations Research, Vol.4 No.6, November 18, 2014

  ABSTRACT: The authors present a methodology and an example of preparing an order of merit list to rank terrorist based upon decision maker weights. This research used an old terrorist data set as our base data to keep the information unclassified. This data is used to demonstrate this methodology. The authors perform numerical iterative criteria weight sensitivity analysis to show the effects on the model’s outputs in changes in the weights. Through their analysis the most critical criterion is identified.
