This study is also a survey research in terms of data collection. To present the research decision-support system, two quantitative methods of fuzzy Delphi and best-worst fuzzy and a qualitative tool called root definitions have been used. Finally, the tool of root definitions, research solutions tailored to each driver are developed.Results:15drivers were extracted through literature review and interviews with experts.
