ملخص المقالة :
The sensitivity analysis for multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problems is important for two reasons: First, the decision matrix asthe source of the results of a decision problem is inaccurate because it sorts the alternatives in each criterion inaccurately. Second, thedecision maker may change his opinions in a time period because of changes in the importance of the criteria and in the policy of theorganization over time. This in turn makes problem solving really time-consuming. Therefore, the best solution is to do sensitivity analysis.In this regard, this paper considers a sensitivity analysis in the QUALIFLEX method which is a compromise ranking method used formulti-criteria decision making (MCDM).
